If principles don't determine what you are going to pass or do, then power will. -- Dan Webster
Dan Webster Quotes : pic 000635031
Principle says it's not who put forth an idea. It's not the position of the person who put forth an idea; it's not the longevity of the person or the party of the person.

Dan Webster Quotes : pic 000649572

Dan Webster Quotes : pic 000839022
I'm a homing pigeon. When I'm in Tallahassee, I give everything I have to being, hopefully, the best legislator I can be. When I'm home, I'm home. I try to not do legislative stuff. That brings a balance to life. -- Dan Webster
