“The embers glowing in his bosom could set the world on fire, but they cannot warm the heart of a single human being.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

“The veto is a President’s Constitutional right, given to him by the drafters of the Constitution because they wanted it as a check against irresponsible Congressional action. The veto forces Congress to take another look at legislation that has been passed. I think this is a responsible tool for a president of the United States, and I have sought to use it responsibly.”
