    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    While I believe that with a fair election in the South, our electoral vote would reach two hundred, and that we should have a large popular majority, I am yet anxious, as you are, that in the canvassing of results there should be no taint of dishonesty.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    He that depends
    Upon your favors swims with fins of lead,
    And hews down oaks with rushes.
