Taxes Collected

Famous quotes containing the words taxes and/or collected:

    ...if I were to be murdered I would not want my murderer executed. I would not want my death avenged. Especially by government—which can’t be trusted to control its own bureaucrats or collect taxes equitably or fill a pothole, much less decide which of its citizens to kill.
    Helen Prejean (b. 1940)

    The shortest answer is doing.
    English proverb, collected in George Herbert, Jacula Prudentum (1651)
