State Administering Agency

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or agency:

    For I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
    —Bible: New Testament St. Paul, in Philippians, 4:11.

    It is possible that the telephone has been responsible for more business inefficiency than any other agency except laudanum.... In the old days when you wanted to get in touch with a man you wrote a note, sprinkled it with sand, and gave it to a man on horseback. It probably was delivered within half an hour, depending on how big a lunch the horse had had. But in these busy days of rush-rush-rush, it is sometimes a week before you can catch your man on the telephone.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
