Famous quotes containing the words executive and/or branch:
“One point in my public life: I did all I could for the reform of the civil service, for the building up of the South, for a sound currency, etc., etc., but I never forgot my party.... I knew that all good measures would suffer if my Administration was followed by the defeat of my party. Result, a great victory in 1880. Executive and legislature both completely Republican.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (18221893)
“That mans the true Conservative
Who lops the mouldered branch away.”
—Alfred Tennyson (18091892)
