Formed Government

Famous quotes containing the words formed and/or government:

    “A foreign minister, I will maintain it, can never be a good man of business if he is not an agreeable man of pleasure too. Half his business is done by the help of his pleasures: his views are carried on, and perhaps best, and most unsuspectedly, at balls, suppers, assemblies, and parties of pleasure; by intrigues with women, and connections insensibly formed with men, at those unguarded hours of amusement.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “Doctor, I want you to make it known to your government that it can trust us implicitly, for we do not want any of your territory. We only want your trade.”
    —William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
