Text Quotes
In a virtuous and free state, no rewards can be so pleasing to sensible minds, as those which include the approbation of our fellow citizens. My great pain is, lest my poor endeavours should fall short of the kind expectations of my country  (Citizens Quotes) You will do the greatest service to the state if you shall raise, not the roofs of the houses, but the souls of the citizens: for it is better that great souls should dwell in small houses rather than for mean slaves to lurk in great houses  (Citizens Quotes) A nation’s domestic and foreign policies and actions should be derived from the same standards of ethics, honesty and morality which are characteristic of the individual citizens of the nation  (Citizens Quotes) Voting is easy and marginally useful, but it is a poor substitute for democracy, which requires direct action by concerned citizens  (Citizens Quotes) The arbitrary division between church and state... is used, as an easily identifiable rallying point, to subdue the opinions of that vast body of citizens who represent those with religious convictions  (Citizens Quotes) The more people who own little businesses of their own, the safer our country will be, and the better off its cities and towns; for the people who have a stake in their country and their community are its best citizens  (Citizens Quotes) Persuade your fellow citizens it’s a good idea and pass a law. That’s what democracy is all about. It’s not about nine superannuated judges who have been there too long, imposing these demands on society  (Citizens Quotes) We really have to, as a country, recognize that school is where people get their identity not just as a scholar, or a future business person, but as a citizen. And we need to make sure that schools set them up for success as citizens  (Citizens Quotes) Let ideas establish their legitimate sway again in society, let life be fair and poetic, and the scholars will gladly be lovers, citizens, and philanthropists  (Citizens Quotes) Of all the treasures a state can possess, the human lives of its citizens are for us the most precious  (Citizens Quotes) An honest man can feel no pleasure in the exercise of power over his fellow citizens  (Citizens Quotes) My power vanishes into thin air the instant that my fellow citizens, who are straight and honest, cease to believe that I represent them and fight for what is straight and honest. That is all the strength that I have  (Citizens Quotes) Things which matter cost money, and we’ve got to spend the money if we do not want to have generations of parasites rather than generations of productive citizens  (Citizens Quotes) I believe in markets doing what they do well, which is to develop technology, and letting citizens do what they ideally do well, which is to set policy  (Citizens Quotes) Disarmed citizens encourage crime and violence. Armed citizens encourage criminals to find a safer line of work  (Citizens Quotes) What holds people together long enough to discover their power as citizens is their common inhabiting of a single place  (Citizens Quotes) History says that progress often requires sacrifice, but what kind of progress can we claim when it is built on the lives of the citizens it is supposed to aid?  (Citizens Quotes) I have strongly supported the right to keep and bear arms. I truly believe that firearms in the hands of law abiding citizens makes our families and our communities more safe, not less safe  (Citizens Quotes) Government works less efficiently when it begins to grow out of control and takes on more and more of the responsibilities that belong to the citizens  (Citizens Quotes) Governments cannot make marriages or turn feckless individuals into responsible citizens. That needs another kind of change agent  (Citizens Quotes) Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has  (Citizens Quotes) Treaties, agreements and organizations to help settle disputes may be necessary, but they often favor the interests of business over citizens  (Citizens Quotes) What the statesman is most anxious to produce is a certain moral character in his fellow citizens, namely a disposition to virtue and the performance of virtuous actions  (Citizens Quotes) In a democracy, the majority of the citizens is capable of exercising the most cruel oppressions upon the minority  (Citizens Quotes) Note, besides, that it is no more immoral to directly rob citizens than to slip indirect taxes into the price of goods that they cannot do without  (Citizens Quotes) Long lives aren’t natural. We forget that senior citizens are as much an invention as toasters or penicillin  (Citizens Quotes) To acquire immunity to eloquence is of the utmost importance to the citizens of a democracy  (Citizens Quotes) A free economy and strong communities honor the dignity of every person, rewarding effort with justice, promoting upward mobility, and building solidarity among citizens  (Citizens Quotes) I think we ought to ban earmarks. I think we ought to give citizens the opportunity to designate up to 10 percent of their federal income tax toward debt reduction. If we did that, we would reduce our debt by $95 billion a year  (Citizens Quotes) When the citizens of a society can see and hear their leaders, then that society should be seen as one  (Citizens Quotes)
