Labor Government

Famous quotes containing the words labor and/or government:

    Sleep, nature’s rest, divine tranquillity,
    That brings peace to the mind and chases far
    All care; that soothes our breasts by daily toil
    Over-wearied, and prepares for labor new.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    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)
