Famous quotes containing the words provincial and/or congress:

    “The dead level of provincial existence.”
    —George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    “The veto is a President’s Constitutional right, given to him by the drafters of the Constitution because they wanted it as a check against irresponsible Congressional action.

    —Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
