Excess Demand

Famous quotes containing the words excess and/or demand:

“The Declaration [of Independence] was not a protest against government, but against the excess of government. It prescribed the proper role of government, to secure the rights of individuals and to effect their safety and happiness. In modern society, no individual can do this alone. So government is not a necessary evil but a necessary good.”
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)

“If she first meet the curled Antony,
He’ll make demand of her, and spend that kiss
Which is my heaven to have.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
