Famous quotes containing the word government:

    “If the dignity as well as the prestige and influence of the United States are not to be wholly sacrificed, we must protect those who, in foreign ports, display the flag or wear the colors of this Government against insult, brutality, and death, inflicted in resentment of the acts of their Government, and not for any fault of their own.”
    —Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)

    “Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the people alone. The people themselves are its only safe depositories.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “The government of the world I live in was not framed, like that of Britain, in after- dinner conversations over the wine.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
