Famous quotes containing the word reform:

    He reckoned a body could reform the old man with a shot-gun, maybe, but he didn’t know no other way.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    One point in my public life: I did all I could for the reform of the civil service, for the building up of the South, for a sound currency, etc., etc., but I never forgot my party.... I knew that all good measures would suffer if my Administration was followed by the defeat of my party. Result, a great victory in 1880. Executive and legislature both completely Republican.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    All reform aims, in some one particular, to let the soul have its way through us; in other words, to engage us to obey.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
