Famous quotes containing the word reform:

    The reform [of the civil service] should be thorough, radical, and complete.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    And let Reform her columns roll.
    With thunder peal, and lightening flash.
    We’ll preach deliverance to the soul.
    ‘Mid proud Oppression’s waning crash.
    Ignis, U.S. women’s magazine contributor. The Genius of Liberty, pp. 9-10 (November 1853)

    One point in my public life: I did all I could for the reform of the civil service, for the building up of the South, for a sound currency, etc., etc., but I never forgot my party.... I knew that all good measures would suffer if my Administration was followed by the defeat of my party. Result, a great victory in 1880. Executive and legislature both completely Republican.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
