I called the New World into existence, to redress the balance of the Old.

Indecision and delays are the parents of failure.

I can prove anything by statistics except the truth

Give me the avowed, erect and manly foe; Firm I can meet, perhaps return the blow; But of all plagues, good Heaven, thy wrath can send, Save me, oh, save me, from the candid friend

Here's to the pilot that weathered the storm.

In matters of commerce the fault of the Dutch / Is offering too little and asking too much. / The French are with equal advantage content, / So we clap on Dutch bottoms just twenty per cent.
