Local Government Expenditures

Famous quotes containing the words local and/or government:

“To see ourselves as others see us can be eye-opening. To see others as sharing a nature with ourselves is the merest decency. But it is from the far more difficult achievement of seeing ourselves amongst others, as a local example of the forms human life has locally taken, a case among cases, a world among worlds, that the largeness of mind, without which objectivity is self- congratulation and tolerance a sham, comes.”
—Clifford Geertz (b. 1926)

“No government ought to be without censors; and where the press is free no one ever will.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
