The Germans will make a few scattered attacks, then go away. The Romans will enjoy a fine September.

Pietro Badoglio

Pietro Badoglio

While visiting Kenya, former President Clinton was offered 40 goats and 20 cows for his daughter, Chelsea, by a love struck government official. Bill said, "No way!" How does that make Hillary feel? Bill almost gave her up for one cow.

The philosophy of the school room in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next.

Abraham Lincoln 16th U.S. President

An educated people can be easily governed.

Frederick The Great Military Commander

I believe that there is a moral and constitutional equivalence between laws designed to subjugate a race and those that distribute benefits on the basis of race in order to foster some current notion of equality.... In my mind, government-sponsored racial discrimination based on benign prejudice is just as noxious as discrimination inspired by malicious prejudice.

Clarence Thomas Associate Justice Of The Supreme Court Of The United States

[John] Adams never had an optimistic view of human nature, and his experience in the Congress and abroad only deepened his suspicion that his fellow Americans might not have the character to sustain a republican government.

Gordon S. Wood Professor

The realistic way to reduce the amount of money in politics is to reduce the amount of politics in money -- the importance of government in allocating wealth and opportunity.

George Will Columnist

It is a maxim of wise government to treat people not as they should be but as they actually are.

Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Writer

This is crossing the Rubicon, after which there will be no more sovereign states in Europe with fully-fledged governments and parliaments which represent legitimate interests of their citizens, but only one State will remain. Basic things will be decided by a remote 'federal government' in Brussels and, for example, Czech citizens will be only a tiny particle whose voice and influence will be almost zero. ... We are against a European superstate.

Vaclav Klaus Former President Of The Czech Republic
