"[Guiteau] Yes, it is! Well, it is. That's exactly what it is. It's a big game, with winners and losers. And for once Franny, for once, in my f---ing life, I am the winner. And of course, everything now will be different. Because I have the name recognition to spare to launch my syndicate, The Daily Theocrat. I did it, Fran. I did it for us. Look. Look at this. These people are writing to me every day, offering me support and-- and pledging money. Franny, I was so scared, I thought I was alone! But they're here! They were always here! And now, they're coming out in droves. Because I gave them something to believe in."

"[Arthur] I dawn many a hat."

"[Guiteau]...I'm your man. (Struggles to say the words) Help me. [Garfield] I'm sorry? [Guiteau] Help me to succeed like you did. Open the door. Let me in. I'm-- I-I'm asking you to-- Well, I-I'm-- I'm begging you. Tell me. Tell me how I can be great too. [Garfield] I'm afraid you misinterpret me, Mr. Guiteau. You see, we're all only men. It is God, not I, who is great. Who grants us purpose."

"[Garfield] Assassination can no more be guarded against than death by lightening. It's best not to worry too much about either one." #DeathByLightening #NetflixSeries #Netflix #Drama #Historical #PeriodPiece #PresidentGarfield #DynamicDecember

A painting of James Garfield, a man with dark hair and a bushy beard.

A picture of the cartoon cat Garfield. Text around him reads 'I Hate Mondays Don't You?

Garfield the cat always hated Mondays.

President Garfield died on 19 September 1881, a Monday!

Bizarrely enough these facts are not connected.

Growing old doesn't mean giving up! No matter how much a person ages, they still have life in them & should still do what brings them joy! Youth may fade, but dreams should not! Happiness doesn't only belong to the young- keep going!
