Taxes Collected

Famous quotes containing the words taxes and/or collected:

“...if I were to be murdered I would not want my murderer executed. I would not want my death avenged. Especially by government—which can’t be trusted to control its own bureaucrats or collect taxes equitably or fill a pothole, much less decide which of its citizens to kill.”
—Helen Prejean (b. 1940)

“Sorrow for a husband is like a pain in the elbow, sharp and short.”
—English proverb, collected in Thomas Fuller, Gnomologia, no. 4321 (1732)
