Famous quotes containing the word government:

    I am concerned about the whole man. I am concerned about what the people, using their government as an instrument and a tool, can do toward building the whole man, which will mean a better society and a better world.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)

    The Negro revolution is controlled by foxy white liberals, by the Government itself. But the Black Revolution is controlled only by God.
    Malcolm X (1925–1965)

    It’s no go the picture palace, it’s no go the stadium,
    It’s no go the country cot with a pot of pink geraniums.
    It’s no go the Government grants, it’s no go the elections,
    Sit on your arse for fifty years and hang your hat on a pension.
    Louis MacNeice (1907–1963)
