Pierre Mauroy/mauroys Second Government 23 June 1981 - 22 March 1983

Famous quotes containing the words government and/or march:

    For the people in government, rather than the people who pester it, Washington is an early-rising, hard-working city. It is a popular delusion that the government wastes vast amounts of money through inefficiency and sloth. Enormous effort and elaborate planning are required to waste this much money.
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)

    What if there’s nothing up there at the top?
    Where are the captains that govern mankind?
    What tears down a tree that has nothing within it?
    A blast of wind, O a marching wind,
    March wind, and any old tune,
    March march and how does it run.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
