Famous quotes containing the words policy and/or dealers:

    “Carlyle said “a lie cannot live.” It shows that he did not know how to tell them. If I had taken out a life policy on this one the premiums would have bankrupted me ages ago.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    “There seems to be no stopping drug frenzy once it takes hold of a nation. What starts with an innocuous HUGS, NOT DRUGS bumper sticker soon leads to wild talk of shooting dealers and making urine tests a condition for employment—anywhere.”
    —Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
