Famous quotes containing the words government and/or proposals:

    The lesson should be constantly enforced that though the people support the Government, Government should not support the people.
    Grover Cleveland (1837–1908)

Family ties are stronger and more vital than many of us imagine in the perennial atmosphere of crisis surrounding the subject.
    Joseph Featherstone (20th century)
