It's been a LONG time since I've had the time to devise one of these. But here's one! This prize for this contest is this: 1976 Eisenhower Bicentennial Dollar (Type 2).  This is a quote from an American and has some connection with monetary medium. And that's all I can tell you at this time. I will add clues concerning the orator, his/her background, his/her profession, the timing of the quote, or clues to the actual saying itself, if needed. Good Luck!        Here you go: AM AT GREAT A ARM LEG CORD IT MIGHT TREE CAT GATE

GIVE MORE ORE IS ACROSS A
IN THE WILL BE THE USE UNTIL A
NO IT LOWER A AND THE FACTS AT I A IN THE SAFE AT MAY BIN
I AM BE FOUR A I URN LEG PAY A I TOO CHIN BE MET TWO Feel free to ask questions concerning the speaker, his/her background, the quote, the historical period it was spoken/written, the numismatic connection of the quote, or whatever may help you solve this. Edited by Moe145 04/28/2012 10:44 pm

Quote: I have no personal knowledge of the quoter ever having been elected to any political office. That would rule out William Jennings Bryan and the "Cross of Gold" speech.
