The government can destroy wealth but it cannot create wealth, which is the product of labor and management working with creation.
Best Quotes about Government
The point to remember is what government gives it must first take away
Caldwell, John S.
There is something to be said for government by a great aristocracy which has furnished leaders to the nation in peace and war for generations; even a democrat like myself must admit this. But there is absolutely nothing to be said for government by a plutocracy, for government by men very powerful in certain lines and gifted with the money touch, but with ideals which in their essence are merely those of so many glorified pawnbrokers.
Roosevelt, Theodore
As long as our government is administered for the good of the people, and is regulated by their will; as long as it secures to us the rights of persons and of property, liberty of conscience and of the press, it will be worth defending.
Jackson, Andrew
Of the best rulers, The people only know that they exist; the next best they love and praise the next they fear; and the next they revile. When they do not command the people's faith, some will lose faith in them, and then they resort to oaths! But of the best when their task is accomplished, their work done, the people all remark, We have done it ourselves.
Lao-Tzu
Being nice to governments doesn't work, they are such lying bastards.
Baluch, Joy
It is function of government to invent philosophies to explain the demands of its own convenience.
Kempton, Murray
Governments need to have both shepherds and butchers.
Voltaire
To rule is not so much a question of the heavy hand as the firm seat.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y
That state is best ordered when the wicked have no command, and the good have.
Pittacus
Government is either organized benevolence or organized madness; its peculiar magnitude permits no shading.
Updike, John
Nothing is more surprising than the easiness with which the many are governed by the few.
Hume, David
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
The best government is a benevolent tyranny tempered by an occasional assassination.
Voltaire
Do not ask what the Government can do for you. Ask why it doesn't.
Kocher, Gerhard
You can only govern men by serving them. The rule is without exception.
Cousin, Victor
Any government is potentially the worst client in the world you could ever possibly want to have.
Thomas Heatherwick
Generosity is a part of my character, and I therefore hasten to assure this Government that I will never make an allegation of dishonesty against it wherever a simple explanation of stupidity will suffice.
Lever, Leslie Baron
Sure there are dishonest men in local government. But there are dishonest men in national government too.
Richard M. Nixon
The government can destroy wealth but it cannot create wealth, which is the product of labor and management working with creation.
Murray, Bill
Believe me - the Government will help you anytime it needs you.
Kocher, Gerhard
In the councils of a state, the question is not so much, what ought to be done? As, what can be done?
Proverb, French
Beaverbrook is so pleased to be in the government that he is like the town tart who finally married the Mayor.
Baxter, Beverley
Thou camest out of thy mother's belly without government, thou hast liv'd hitherto without government, and thou mayst be carried to thy long home without government, when it shall please the Lord. How many people in this world live without government, yet do well enough, and are well look'd upon?
Cervantes, Miguel De
There is no nonsense so arrant that it cannot be made the creed of the vast majority by adequate governmental action.
Bertrand Russell
Nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced.
Einstein, Albert
You could afford your house without the government if it weren't for the government.
Limbaugh, Rush
The government is best which makes itself unnecessary.
Humboldt, Karl Wilhelm Von
There is no nonsense so arrant that it cannot be made the creed of the vast majority by adequate government action.
Russell, Bertrand
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
So they [the Government] go on in strange paradox, decided only to be undecided, resolved to be irresolute, adamant for drift, solid for fluidity, all-powerful to be impotent.
Sir Winston Churchill
The government must always be a step ahead of the popular movement.
Boytzwnburg, Count
Fear is the foundation of most government.
Adams, John
The art of government is not to let me grow stale.
Bonaparte, Napoleon
A man without a vote is man without protection.
Johnson, Lyndon B.
The Athenians govern the Greeks; I govern the Athenians; you, my wife, govern me; your son governs you.
Themistocles
The basis of effective government is public confidence.
Kennedy, John F.
It is hard to feel individually responsible with respect to the invisible processes of a huge and distant government.
Gardner, John W.
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
It is the duty of government to make it difficult for people to do wrong, easy to do right.
Gladstone, William E.
It would be foolish to suggest that government is a good custodian of aesthetic goals. But, there is no alternative to the state.
Galbraith, John Kenneth
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
No government is safe unless fortified by goodwill.
Nepos, Cornelius
Congress is so strange. A man gets up to speak and says nothing. Nobody listens, then everybody disagrees.
Marshalov, Boris
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
After two years in Washington, I often long for the realism and sincerity of Hollywood.
Fred Thompson
Government is an evil; it is only the thoughtlessness and vices of men that make it a necessary evil. When all men are good and wise, government will of itself decay.
Shelley, Percy Bysshe
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
The auditor is a watchdog and not a bloodhound.
Topes, Lord Justice
The greater the hold of government upon the life of the individual citizen, the greater the risk of war.
Hospers, John
The care of human life and happiness, and not their destruction, is the first and only legitimate object of good government.
Jefferson, Thomas
