"It is our
true policy to steer clear of
permanent alliance with any portion
of the foreign world." -Farewell
Address, September 17, 1796
"When I was
first honoured with a call into the
service of my Country, then on the
eve of an arduous struggle for its
liberties, the light in which I
contemplated my duty required that I
should renounce every pecuniary
compensation. From this
resolution I have in no instance
departed - And being still under the
impressions which produced it, I
must decline as inapplicable to
myself, any share in the personal
emoluments, which may be
indispensably included in a
permanent provision for the
Executive Department; and must
accordingly pray that the pecuniary
estimates for the Station in which I
am placed, may, during my
continuance in it, be limited to
such actual expenditures as the
public good may be thought to
require." -First Inaugural
Address, 1789
- George
Washington: he had the most to
lose and risked it all.
