Glasgow Corporation

Famous quotes containing the words glasgow and/or corporation:

    A tragic irony of life is that we so often achieve success or financial independence after the chief reason for which we sought it has passed away.
    —Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)

    What I am anxious to do is to get the best bill possible with the least amount of friction.... I wish to avoid [splitting our party]. I shall do all in my power to retain the corporation tax as it is now and also force a reduction of the [tariff] schedules. It is only when all other efforts fail that I’ll resort to headlines and force the people into this fight.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
