Famous quotes containing the word government:

    “The government of the United States at present is a foster-child of the special interests. It is not allowed to have a voice of its own. It is told at every move, “Don’t do that, You will interfere with our prosperity.” And when we ask: “where is our prosperity lodged?” a certain group of gentlemen say, “With us.””
    —Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    “It does seem strange that the only place in the government which I would have liked to fill myself I am forced to give to another.”
    —William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
