We must always remember that America is a great nation today not because of what government did for people but because of what people did for themselves and for one another.
Richard M. Nixon
Under the doctrine of separation of powers, the manner in which the president personally exercises his assigned executive powers is not subject to questioning by another branch of government.
Richard M. Nixon
Sure there are dishonest men in local government. But there are dishonest men in national government too.
Richard M. Nixon
A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have.
Gerald R. Ford
Our great Republic is a government of laws and not of men. Here, the people rule.
Gerald R. Ford
There are no adequate substitutes for father, mother, and children bound together in a loving commitment to nurture and protect. No government, no matter how well-intentioned, can take the place of the family in the scheme of things.
Gerald R. Ford
Our constitution works. Our great republic is a government of laws, not of men.
Gerald R. Ford
Truth is the glue that holds government together.
Gerald R. Ford
Freedom of opinion can only exist when the government thinks itself secure.
Bertrand Russell
Every wise, just, and mild government, by rendering the condition of its subjects easy and secure, will always abound most in people, as well as in commodities and riches.
David Hume
There has been growing quite a strain of irritating feeling between our government and the Russians and it seems to me that it is a time for me to use all the restraint I can on these other people who have been apparently getting a little more irritated.
Henry L. Stimson
Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys.
P. J. O'Rourke
It would be foolish to suggest that government is a good custodian of aesthetic goals. But, there is no alternative to the state.
John Kenneth Galbraith
If Liberia has failed, then, it is no evidence of the failure of the Negro in government. It is merely evidence of the failure of slavery.
Carter G. Woodson
I think that people want peace so much that one of these days government had better get out of their way and let them have it.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Government has no other end, but the preservation of property.
John Locke
It is amazing that people who think we cannot afford to pay for doctors, hospitals, and medication somehow think that we can afford to pay for doctors, hospitals, medication and a government bureaucracy to administer it.
Thomas Sowell
What is ominous is the ease with which some people go from saying that they don't like something to saying that the government should forbid it. When you go down that road, don't expect freedom to survive very long.
Thomas Sowell
The real goal should be reduced government spending, rather than balanced budgets achieved by ever rising tax rates to cover ever rising spending.
Thomas Sowell
Every government is a parliament of whores. The trouble is, in a democracy, the whores are us.
P. J. O'Rourke
