Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power. Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be. You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time. A house divided against itself cannot stand. And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.
