Doris Kearns Goodwin Quote

Chase has fallen into two bad habits… . He thinks he has become indispensable to the country… . He also thinks he ought to be President; he has no doubt whatever about that. These two unfortunate tendencies, Lincoln explained, had made Chase irritable, uncomfortable, so that he is never perfectly happy unless he is thoroughly miserable.
