Famous quotes containing the words major and/or legislation:

    A major power can afford a military debacle only when it looks like a political victory.
    Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)

    The laboring man and the trade-unionist, if I understand him, asks only equality before the law. Class legislation and unequal privilege, though expressly in his favor, will in the end work no benefit to him or to society.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
