Labour Government

Famous quotes containing the words labour and/or government:

“What a vast traffic is drove, what a variety of labour is performed in the world to the maintenance of thousands of families that altogether depend on two silly if not odious customs; the taking of snuff and smoking of tobacco; both of which it is certain do infinitely more hurt than good to those that are addicted to them!”
—Bernard Mandeville (1670–1733)

“... the happiness of a people is the only rational object of government, and the only object for which a people, free to choose, can have a government at all.”
