Famous quotes containing the word government:

    Social Security is a government program with a constituency made up of the old, the near old and those who hope or fear to grow old. After 215 years of trying, we have finally discovered a special interest that includes 100 percent of the population. Now we can vote ourselves rich.
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)

    No government power can be abused long. Mankind will not bear it.... There is a remedy in human nature against tyranny, that will keep us safe under every form of government.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    The lesson should be constantly enforced that though the people support the Government, Government should not support the people.
    Grover Cleveland (1837–1908)
