Washington National

Famous quotes containing the words washington and/or national:

    “For the people in government, rather than the people who pester it, Washington is an early-rising, hard-working city. It is a popular delusion that the government wastes vast amounts of money through inefficiency and sloth. Enormous effort and elaborate planning are required to waste this much money.”
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)

    “The progress
    Is permanent like the preordained bulk
    Of the First National Bank
    Like fish sauce, but agreeable.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
