Fisher Government

Famous quotes containing the words fisher and/or government:

    For anyone addicted to reading commonplace books ... finding a good new one is much like enduring a familiar recurrence of malaria, with fever, fits of shaking, strange dreams. Unlike a truly paludismic ordeal, however, the symptoms felt while savoring a collection of one man’s pet quotations are voluptuously enjoyable ...
    —M.F.K. Fisher (1908–1992)

    [In government] the problem to be solved is, not what form of government is perfect, but which of the forms is least imperfect.
