You may have a cancer upon your person, and not be able to cut it out, lest you bleed to death; but surely it is no way to cure it, to engraft it and spread it over your whole body.”Thursday, January 12, 12

“I will say that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races, that I am not, not ever have been, in favor of making voters or jurors of Negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races from living together on terms of social and political equality. . . . and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.”Thursday, January 12, 12
