“A bureaucracy is sure to think that its duty is to augment official power, official business, or official members, rather than to leave free the energies of mankind; it overdoes the quantity of government, as well as impairs its quality. The truth is, that a skilled bureaucracy ... is, though it boasts of an appearance of science, quite inconsistent with the true principles of the art of business.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
“His principles are like the bristles of a domesticated pig, they don’t pierce through the pork.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
“Though the ancients were ignorant of the principles of Christianity there were in them the germs of its spirit.”
