Famous quotes containing the word institutions:

    “Understanding the spirit of our institutions to aim at the elevation of man, I am opposed to whatever tends to degrade them.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    “Good government cannot be found on the bargain-counter. We have seen samples of bargain-counter government in the past when low tax rates were secured by increasing the bonded debt for current expenses or refusing to keep our institutions up to the standard in repairs, extensions, equipment, and accommodations. I refuse, and the Republican Party refuses, to endorse that method of sham and shoddy economy.”
    —Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)

    “In abnormal times like our own, when institutions are changing rapidly in several directions at once and the traditional framework of society has broken down, it becomes more and more difficult to measure any type of behavior against any other.”
    —John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
