Government Quotes

We cannot leap into world government through one quick step... The precondition for eventual and genuine globalization is progressive regionalization because by that we move toward larger, more stable, more cooperative units Picture Quote #1

We have no government and no laws, if by law is meant a stereotyped convention supported by force, and not to be altered without the aid of cumbersome machinery Picture Quote #1

If you look at how the federal government spends our money, it’s an insurance conglomerate protected by a large, standing army Picture Quote #1

The philosophy of praxis does not aim at the peaceful resolution of existing contradictions in history and society, but is the very theory of these contradictions. It is not the instrument of government of the dominant groups in order to gain the consent and exercise hegemony over the subaltern classes. It is the expression of subaltern classes who want to educate themselves in the art of government and who have an interest in knowing all truths, even the unpleasant ones, and in avoiding the impossible deceptions of the upper class, and even more their own Picture Quote #1

Healing of the world’s woes will not come through this or that social or political theory; not through violent changes in government, but in the still small voice that speaks to the conscience and the heart Picture Quote #1

Guess what this liberal would be all about? This liberal will be about socializing... uh, um... Would be about, basically, taking over, and the government running all of your companies Picture Quote #1

What is it about the government and its agents and employees that they can lie to us with impunity, but we risk being sent to jail if we lie to them? Picture Quote #1

If you believe women are constituted differently to men then remove taxation from them. But if you’re a democrat and you believe in government of the people by the people and for the people, then you believe in fair play. So when you tax women, give them the vote as well Picture Quote #1

In brief, we have the new paradigm where simulation and programs have replaced theory and observation, where government largely determines the nature of scientific activity, and where the primary role of professional societies is the lobbying of the government for special advantage Picture Quote #1

It is the responsibility of the citizens to support their government. It is not the responsibility of the government to support its citizens Picture Quote #1

When the private sector fails, the solution is more government. When the government fails, the solution is more government Picture Quote #1

The political class can’t imagine a decentralized world where good things happen... without them. But in the real world, that’s exactly how good things happen, and how jobs are created. When government sets simple rules that everyone understands and then gets out of the way, free people create jobs Picture Quote #1

I do not believe that the federal government should treat adults who choose to smoke marijuana as criminals Picture Quote #1

We have seen a growing mismatch between the command of media communication shown by the most talented politicians, and the halting, uneven progress which they can deliver through the machinery of government Picture Quote #1

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the responsible use of marijuana by adults and it should be of no interest or concern to the government. They have no business knowing whether we smoke or why we smoke Picture Quote #1

Throughout history government has served as a vehicle for the organization of hatred and oppression, benefiting no one except those who are ambitious and ruthless enough to gain control of it Picture Quote #1

God knows that I detest slavery, but it is an existing evil, for which we are not responsible, and we must endure it, till we can get rid of it without destroying the last hope of free government in the world Picture Quote #1

Unlike any other nation, here the people rule, and their will is the supreme law. It is sometimes sneeringly said by those who do not like free government, that here we count heads. True, heads are counted, but brains also Picture Quote #1

The problem isn’t that conservatives are wrong about the efficiency of markets or the creativity of enterprise. It’s that they have made false idols of both, usually without acknowledging that markets work best when well regulated, that private enterprise cannot meet every human need, that government has always played a critical role in our economy, and that the profit motive can be socially and environmentally destructive as well as dynamic Picture Quote #1

Democracies die behind closed doors... When government begins closing doors, it selectively controls information rightfully belonging to the people. Selective information is misinformation Picture Quote #1

The government needs the help of industry. But the reality is companies will balance that against their own commercial interest in a very competitive market Picture Quote #1

I don’t think any government has the means to protect us from the world reality Picture Quote #1

They should set a very clear priority for the government. There is such a large penumbra of issues. The party needs to come to grips with the reality that it has to be coherent politically Picture Quote #1

China has been a textbook case of how the government did just enough intervention to increase penetration, but the reality is that it isn’t going to work for all countries in the same way. Culture always plays a role and you can’t necessarily take what worked in one market and automatically make it work somewhere else Picture Quote #1

Part of the problem with extreme patriotism is that it makes the support of one’s country and its policies unconditional. Moderate patriots, on the other hand, see that taking morality seriously requires that our commitment to our country be conditional in two ways. First, the actions or policies of a government must be worthy of support or, at least, must not be serious violations of morality. When nations behave immorally, patriots need not support them Picture Quote #1

Any nation that can survive what we have lately in the way of government, is on the high road to permanent glory Picture Quote #1

My view is that good community management is like having good municipal government: You should be able to have dissenting opinions and so on, freedom of speech, but your grandmother should also be able to walk down the street at night without having to worry about getting mugged Picture Quote #1
