Famous quotes containing the word washington:
“The government is huge, stupid, greedy and makes nosy, officious and dangerous intrusions into the smallest corners of lifethis much we can stand. But the real problem is that government is boring. We could cure or mitigate the other ills Washington visits on us if we could only bring ourselves to pay attention to Washington itself. But we cannot.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
“I thought it altogether proper that I should take a brief furlough from official duties at Washington to mingle with you here to-day as a comrade, because every President of the United States must realize that the strength of the Government, its defence in war, the army that is to muster under its banner when our Nation is assailed, is to be found here in the masses of our people.”
—Benjamin Harrison (18331901)
“When you wish upon a star your dreams come true.”
—Ned Washington (190l1976)
