Famous quotes containing the words national and/or legislation:

    It is no part of the functions of the National Government to find employment for the people, and if we were to appropriate a hundred millions for his purpose, we should only be taxing 40 millions of people to keep a few thousand employed.
    James A. Garfield (1831–1881)

    The wise know that foolish legislation is a rope of sand, which perishes in the twisting.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
