Additional quotes by Adlai Stevenson II

I have sometimes said that flattery is all right, Mr. President, if you don't inhale it.

Every age needs men who will redeem the time by living with a vision of the things that are to be.

I have said what I meant and meant what I said. I have not done as well as I should like to have done, but I have done my best, frankly and forthrightly; no man can do more, and you are entitled to no less.
