Nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced.

Best Quotes about Government
I say to myself that I mustn't let myself be cut off in there, and yet the moment I enter my bag is taken out of my hand, I'm pushed in, shepherded, nursed and above all cut off, alone. Whitehall envelops me.
Crossman, Richard
You will find that the State is the kind of organization which, though it does big things badly, does small things badly, too.
John Kenneth Galbraith
No man undertakes a trade he has not learned, even the meanest; yet everyone thinks himself sufficiently qualified for the hardest of all trades, that of government.
Socrates
The government is best which makes itself unnecessary.
Humboldt, Karl Wilhelm Von
Today, if you invent a better mousetrap, the government comes along with a better mouse.
Reagan, Ronald
The marvel of all history is the patience with which men and women submit to burdens unnecessarily laid upon them by their governments.
William H. Borah
The care of human life and happiness, and not their destruction, is the first and only legitimate object of good government.
Jefferson, Thomas
A government must not waiver once it has chosen it's course. It must not look to the left or right but go forward.
Bismarck, Otto Von
There is no nonsense so arrant that it cannot be made the creed of the vast majority by adequate government action.
Russell, Bertrand
Men are not governed by justice, but by law or persuasion. When they refuse to be governed by law or persuasion, they have to be governed by force or fraud, or both.
Shaw, George Bernard
There is no nonsense so arrant that it cannot be made the creed of the vast majority by adequate governmental action.
Bertrand Russell
Whenever you have an efficient government you have a dictatorship.
Harry S Truman
The worst thing in the world next to anarchy, is government.
Beecher, Henry Ward
Government is either organized benevolence or organized madness; its peculiar magnitude permits no shading.
Updike, John
We must judge a government by its general tendencies and not by its happy accidents.
Macaulay, Thomas B.
For every action there is an equal and opposite government program.
Bob Wells
The greater the hold of government upon the life of the individual citizen, the greater the risk of war.
Hospers, John
The art of government is the organization of idolatry. The bureaucracy consists of functionaries; the aristocracy, of idols; the democracy, of idolaters. The populace cannot understand the bureaucracy: it can only worship the national idols.
Shaw, George Bernard
To administer is to govern: to govern is to reign. That is the essence of the problem.
Mirabeau, Comte De
When our government is spoken of as some menacing, threatening, foreign entity, it ignores the fact that in our democracy, government is us.
President Barack Obama
You can only govern men by serving them. The rule is without exception.
Cousin, Victor
But their determination to banish fools foundered ultimately in the installation of absolute idiots.
Bunting, Basil
Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government except all those others that have been tried from time to time.
Churchill, Winston
The constitution is not neutral. It was designed to take the government off the backs of people.
Douglas, William O.
Governments tend not to solve problems, only to rearrange them.
Reagan, Ronald
Believe me - the Government will help you anytime it needs you.
Kocher, Gerhard
The government is us; we are the government, you and I.
Roosevelt, Theodore
Public instruction should be the first object of government.
Bonaparte, Napoleon
The mechanism that directs government cannot be virtuous, because it is impossible to thwart every crime, to protect oneself from every criminal without being criminal too; that which directs corrupt mankind must be corrupt itself; and it will never be by means of virtue, virtue being inert and passive, that you will maintain control over vice, which is ever active: the governor must be more energetic than the governed.
Sade, Marquis De
The basis of effective government is public confidence.
Kennedy, John F.
Governments need to have both shepherds and butchers.
Voltaire
Good government is the outcome of private virtue.
Chapman, John Jay
To govern is to choose. To appear to be unable to choose is to appear to be unable to govern.
Lawson, Nigel
When any government, or church for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects,this you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motive.
Heinlein, Robert
What is government itself but the greatest of all reflections on human nature? If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary.
Madison, James
It is the duty of government to make it difficult for people to do wrong, easy to do right.
Gladstone, William E.
Whenever the people are well informed, they can be trusted with their own government; that whenever things get so far wrong as to attract their notice, they may be relied on to set them to rights.
Jefferson, Thomas
An ambassador is an honest person sent to lie abroad for their country.
Wotton, Sir Henry
I believe that all government is evil, and that trying to improve it is largely a waste of time.
H. L. Mencken
I don't judge a regime by the damning criticism of the opposition, but by the ingenuous praise of the partisan.
Rostand, Jean
Safety of the state is the highest law.
Justinian
The Athenians govern the Greeks; I govern the Athenians; you, my wife, govern me; your son governs you.
Themistocles
For its part, Government will listen. We will strive to listen in new ways -- to the voices of quiet anguish, to voices that speak without words, the voices of the heart, to the injured voices, and the anxious voices, and the voices that have despaired of being heard.
Nixon, Richard M.
Government does not solve problems; it subsidizes them.
Reagan, Ronald
Government is not reason and it is not eloquence. It is force! Like fire it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master. Never for a moment should it be left to irresponsible action.
Washington, George
Not wishing to be disturbed over moral issues of the political economy, Americans cling to the notion that the government is a sort of automatic machine, regulated by the balancing of competing interests.
Mills, C. Wright
In a healthy nation there is a kind of dramatic balance between the will of the people and the government, which prevents its degeneration into tyranny.
Einstein, Albert
Do not ask what the Government can do for you. Ask why it doesn't.
Kocher, Gerhard
Large legislative bodies resolve themselves into coteries, and coteries into jealousies.
Bonaparte, Napoleon
A government, for protecting business only, is but a carcass, and soon falls by its own corruption and decay.
Alcott, Amos Bronson
