Famous quotes containing the words national, scenic and/or area:

    The word which gives the key to the national vice is waste. And people who are wasteful are not wise, neither can they remain young and vigorous. In order to transmute energy to higher and more subtle levels one must first conserve it.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    Hence from scenic bacchanal,
    Preshrunk and droll prodigal!
    Smallness that you had to spend,
    Spent. Wench, whiskey and tail-end
    Of your overseas disease
    Rot and rout you by degrees.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    Now for civil service reform. Legislation must be prepared and executive rules and maxims. We must limit and narrow the area of patronage. We must diminish the evils of office-seeking. We must stop interference of federal officers with elections. We must be relieved of congressional dictation as to appointments.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
