—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it NOW deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.”
—Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
“The masochist: “I send my tormentor hurrying hither and thither in the service of my suffering and desire.””
