Joint Rule

Famous quotes containing the words joint and/or rule:

“No Government can be long secure without a formidable Opposition. It reduces their supporters to that tractable number which can be managed by the joint influences of fruition and hope. It offers vengeance to the discontented, and distinction to the ambitious; and employs the energies of aspiring spirits, who otherwise may prove traitors in a division or assassins in a debate.”
—Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)

“This administration is going to be a compassionate administration. We believe in the Golden Rule of doing unto others as you would have them do unto you.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
