Famous quotes containing the words legislative and/or branch:

    “The legislative powers of government reach actions only, and not opinions, ... thus building a wall of separation between Church and State.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “When I am finishing a picture I hold some God-made object up to it—a rock, a flower, the branch of a tree or my hand—as a kind of final test. If the painting stands up beside a thing man cannot make, the painting is authentic. If there’s a clash between the two, it is bad art.”
    —Marc Chagall (1889–1985)
