Famous quotes containing the words budget and/or cuts:
“The United States is the only great nation whose government is operated without a budget. The fact is to be the more striking when it is considered that budgets and budget procedures are the outgrowth of democratic doctrines and have an important part in developing the modern constitutional rights.... The constitutional purpose of a budget is to make government responsive to public opinion and responsible for its acts.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“Spirit is the life that itself cuts into life: with its own torment it increases its own knowledge. Did you already know that?”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
