Famous quotes containing the words state, property, tax and/or incentives:

    And now the end is near
    And so I face the final curtain,
    I’ll state my case of which I’m certain.
    I’ve lived a life that’s full, I traveled each and ev’ry highway,
    And more, much more than this. I did it my way.
    Frank Sinatra (b. 1915)

    It is as if being was to be observed,
    As if, among the possible purposes
    Of what one sees, the purpose that comes first,
    The surface, is the purpose to be seen,
    The property of the moon, what it evokes.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    I come into the peace of wild things
    who do not tax their lives with forethought
    of grief.
    Wendell Berry (b. 1934)

    Perestroika basically is creating material incentives for the individual. Some of the comrades deny that, but I can’t see it any other way. In that sense human nature kinda goes backwards. It’s a step backwards. You have to realize the people weren’t quite ready for a socialist production system.
    Gus Hall (b. 1910)
