Famous quotes containing the words state and/or governments:
“A ship is a bit of terra firma cut off from the main; it is a state in itself; and the captain is its king.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“Government is at best but an expedient; but most governments are usually, and all governments are sometimes, inexpedient.
