[deadpresidents]

"I am trying to do two things: dare to be a radical and not be a fool, which, if I may judge by the exhibitions around me, is a matter of no small difficulty."

-- James A. Garfield, future President and then a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, in a letter to Burke Aaron Hinsdale, one of Garfield's former students at Ohio's Hiram College, January 1, 1867
