Economy I consider a virtue & should be practiced by all; there is certainly no way in which money can be laid out than in the education of children.

Zachary Taylor 19 quotes

I did not expect to encounter what has beset me since my elevation to the presidency. God knows, I have endeavored to fulfill what I considered to be an honest duty, but I have been mistaken; my motives have been misconstrued and my feelings grossly betrayed.

For more than a quarter of a century on active duty, my house has been my tent, and my home the battlefield.

It would be judicious to act with magnanimity towards a prostrate foe.

Zachary Taylor 19 quotes

The idea that I should become president seems to me too visionary to require a serious answer. It has never entered my head, nor is it likely to enter the head of any other person.

Zachary Taylor 19 quotes

In reference to the Army and Navy, lately employed with so much distinction on active service, care shall be taken to insure the highest condition of efficiency; and in furtherance of that object, the Military and Naval Schools, sustained by the liberality of Congress, shall receive the special attention of the Executive.

Soldiers, I intend to stay here, not only as long as a man remains, but as long as a piece of a man is left.

Zachary Taylor 19 quotes

I cannot in any case permit myself to be brought before the people, exclusively, by any of the political parties that now so unfortunately divide our country, as their candidate for office.

Zachary Taylor 19 quotes

The appointing power vested in the president imposes delicate and onerous duties. So far as it is possible to be informed, I shall make honesty, capacity, and fidelity indispensable prerequisites to the disposal of office, and the absence of either of these qualities shall be deemed sufficient cause for removal.

Zachary Taylor 19 quotes

As to the Constitution and the Union, I have taken an oath to support the one, and I cannot do so without preserving the other, unless I commit perjury, which I certainly don't intend to do. We must cherish the Constitution to the last.
