Court System

Famous quotes containing the words court and/or system:

“Rome, like Washington, is small enough, quiet enough, for strong personal intimacies; Rome, like Washington, has its democratic court and its entourage of diplomatic circle; Rome, like Washington, gives you plenty of time and plenty of sunlight. In New York we have annihilated both.”
—M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)

“Nothing is so well calculated to produce a death-like torpor in the country as an extended system of taxation and a great national debt.”
