Famous quotes containing the word government:

    People sometimes inquire what form of government is most suitable for an artist to live under. To this question there is only one answer. The form of government that is most suitable to the artist is no government at all.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    The republican is the only form of government which is not eternally at open or secret war with the rights of mankind.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    Chile consents to do all we can reasonably demand. My regret is that our Government blustered and bullied. President [Benjamin] Harrison argued in his message like a prosecutor—made the most of the case against our weak sister. Forbearance, charity, friendship, arbitration should have been in our words and thoughts.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
