More quotes by James K. Polk
The world has nothing to fear from military ambition in our Government.
With me it is emphatically true that the presidency is "no bed of roses."
Foreign powers do not seem to appreciate the true character of our Government.

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
