Famous quotes containing the words climate, change and/or washington:
“Ghosts, we hope, may be always with us—that is, never too far out of the reach of fancy.

“And Change with hurried hand has swept these scenes:

And fire has drunk the swamps of evergreens;
Yet for a moment let my fancy plant

—Frederick Goddard Tuckerman (1821–1873)
“The government is huge, stupid, greedy and makes nosy, officious and dangerous intrusions into the smallest corners of life—this much we can stand. But the real problem is that government is boring. We could cure or mitigate the other ills Washington visits on us if we could only bring ourselves to pay attention to Washington itself. But we cannot.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
