Tax Abatement

Famous quotes containing the words tax and/or abatement:

“Parents are used to being made to feel guilty about...their contribution to the population problem, the school tax burden, and declining test scores. They expect to be blamed by teachers and psychologists, if not by police. And they will be blamed by the children themselves. It is hardy a wonder, then, that they withdraw into what used to be called “permissiveness” but is really neglect.”
—C. John Sommerville (20th century)

“The distempers of the soul have their relapses, as many and as dangerous as those of the body; and what we take for a perfect cure is generally either an abatement of the same disease or the changing of that for another.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
