Famous quotes containing the word government:

    I am concerned about the whole man. I am concerned about what the people, using their government as an instrument and a tool, can do toward building the whole man, which will mean a better society and a better world.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)

    It is a maxim of wise government to treat people not as they should be but as they actually are.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    Vanity is as advantageous to a government as pride is dangerous. To be convinced of this we need only represent, on the one hand, the numberless benefits which result from vanity, as industry, the arts, fashions, politeness, and taste; and on the other, the infinite evils which spring from the pride of certain nations, a laziness, poverty, a total neglect of everything.
    —Charles Louis de Secondat Montesquieu (1689–1755)
