Government oil!—light enough, perchance, to read the Constitution by! I thought that he should read nothing less than his Bible by that lamp.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“It doesn’t matter who you vote for, the government always gets in.”
—Graffiti. London (1970s)

—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
