Famous quotes containing the word treasury:

    “Listen to me, imbecile. If the Treasury is important, then human life is not. This is clear. All those who think like you ought to admit this reasoning and count their lives for nothing because they hold money for everything.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)
