Famous quotes containing the word offices:

    “The difficulty is no longer to find candidates for the offices, but offices for the candidates.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “In a virtuous government, and more especially in times like these, public offices are, what the should be, burthens to those appointed to them which it would be wrong to decline, though foreseen to bring with them intense labor and great private loss.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “If private men are obliged to perform the offices of government, to protect the weak and dispense justice, then the government becomes only a hired man, or clerk, to perform menial or indifferent services.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
