Famous quotes containing the word government:

    The dignity and stability of government in all its branches, the morals of the people, and every blessing of society, depend so much upon an upright and skilful administration of justice, that the judicial power ought to be distinct from both the legislative and executive, and independent upon both, that so it may be a check upon both, as both should be checks upon that.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    Whatever it is that the government does, sensible Americans would prefer that the government do it to somebody else. This is the idea behind foreign policy.
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)

    In general, the art of government consists in taking as much money as possible from one party of the citizens to give to the other.
    Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)
