Famous quotes containing the words tax and/or imposed:
“Parents are used to being made to feel guilty about...their contribution to the population problem, the school tax burden, and declining test scores. They expect to be blamed by teachers and psychologists, if not by police. And they will be blamed by the children themselves. It is hardy a wonder, then, that they withdraw into what used to be called “permissiveness” but is really neglect.”
—C. John Sommerville (20th century)
“‘Twas Age imposed on poems
Their gather-roses burden
To warn against the danger
That overtakes lovers
From being overflooded
With happiness should have it
And yet not know they have it.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
