“The prairies were dust. Day after day, summer after summer, the scorching winds blew the dust and the sun was brassy in a yellow sky. Crop after crop failed. Again and again the barren land must be mortgaged for taxes and food and next year’s seed. The agony of hope ended when there was not harvest and no more credit, no money to pay interest and taxes; the banker took the land. Then the bank failed.”
—Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)
“Assassination is the perquisite of princes.”
—19th-century European court cliché.
“Do you know I believe that [William Jennings] Bryan will force his nomination on the Democrats again.

—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
