Famous quotes containing the words governmental and/or work:
“Almost every thing, especially of governmental policy, is an inseparable compound of the two [good and evil].”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“The slightest living thing answers a deeper need than all the works of man because it is transitory. It has an evanescence of life, or growth, or change: it passes, as we do, from one stage to the another, from darkness to darkness, into a distance where we, too, vanish out of sight. A work of art is static; and its value and its weakness lie in being so: but the tuft of grass and the clouds above it belong to our own travelling brotherhood.”
—Freya Stark (b. 1893–1993)
