Famous quotes containing the words tax and/or purposes:
“If you tax too high, the revenue will yield nothing.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Let us guard against saying that there are laws in nature. There are merely necessities: there is no one who commands, no one who obeys, no one who transgresses. Once you understand that there are no purposes, then you also understand that nothing is accidental: for it is only in a world of purposes that the word “accident” makes sense.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
