State Investment

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or investment:

    “I met a Californian who would
    Talk California—a state so blessed
    He said, in climate, none had ever died there
    A natural death, and Vigilance Committees
    Had had to organize to stock the graveyards
    And vindicate the state’s humanity.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “The only thing that was dispensed free to the old New Bedford whalemen was a Bible. A well-known owner of one of that city’s whaling fleets once described the Bible as the best cheap investment a shipowner could make.”
    —For the State of Massachusetts, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
