Famous quotes containing the words executive and/or security:

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)
“To have in general but little feeling, seems to be the only security against feeling too much on any particular occasion.”
