- Change theme
- It is through states that the American people get the job done every day, often in spite of a deeply flawed bureaucratic federal government.
- Rick Perry on Government
- It is time for corporate America to become 'the third pillar' of social change in our society, complementing the first two pillars of government and philanthropy. We need the entire private sector to begin committing itself not just to making profits, but to fulfilling higher and larger purposes by contributing to building a better world.
- Simon Mainwaring on Government
- It is time we passed a balanced budget amendment and return this government to limited spending.
- Newt Gingrich on Government
- It is to be regretted that the rich and powerful too often bend the acts of government to their own selfish purposes.
- Andrew Jackson on Government
- It is unclear exactly how many law enforcement agencies are currently using this capability, but it is reasonable to say that while resource limitations used to discourage the government from tracking you without a good reason, these constraints have largely disappeared.
- Ron Wyden on Government
- It is unfortunate that Americans are no longer aware of what the constitution says and what their rights are. Because of that, we are often very passive about what happens when the government violates those rights.
- James Bovard on Government
- It matters enormously to a successful democratic society like ours that we have three branches of government, each with some independence and some control over the other two. That's set out in the Constitution.
- Sandra Day O'Connor on Government
- It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a Free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even of his personal services to the defense of it.
- George Washington on Government
- It was once said that the moral test of government is how that government treats those who are in the dawn of life, the children those who are in the twilight of life, the elderly and those who are in the shadows of life, the sick, the needy and the handicapped.
- Hubert H. Humphrey on Government
- It was settled by the Constitution, the laws, and the whole practice of the government that the entire executive power is vested in the President of the United States.
- Andrew Jackson on Government
- 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 on Government
- It's a good thing we don't get all the government we pay for.
- Will Rogers on Government
- It's a very sobering feeling to be up in space and realize that one's safety factor was determined by the lowest bidder on a government contract.
- Alan Shepard on Government
- It's become unfashionable to celebrate political achievement, and Labour achievement even less so. And it's positively uncouth to be proud of something that this Labour government is doing. So, slam me for saying so, but I'm really proud of the NHS.
- Lucy Powell on Government
- It's counterintuitive, but the most divisive arrangement is when the same party controls both Congress and the presidency, a situation encountered in eight of the past 10 years. With government unified under a single party, the minority has the least possible incentive to cooperate with the majority.
- John Sununu on Government
- It's dismaying to see the unilateralism that the government is doing.
- Edward Norton on Government
- It's easy being a humorist when you've got the whole government working for you.
- Will Rogers on Government
- It's not good for government to tell people that the world owes them a living and that things are free.
- William Weld on Government
- It's not the voting that's democracy it's the counting.
- Tom Stoppard on Government
- It's not tyranny we desire it's a just, limited, federal government.
- Alexander Hamilton on Government
- It's opportunity. It's opportunity, not a check from government - it's opportunity that has always driven America and defined us as Americans.
- Mitt Romney on Government
- It's the federal government's job to secure the border.
- Carly Fiorina on Government
- It's the government's obligation to look really to the third parties to get the support to govern.
- Stephen Harper on Government
- It's time to fundamentally change the way that we do business in Washington. To help build a new foundation for the 21st century, we need to reform our government so that it is more efficient, more transparent, and more creative. That will demand new thinking and a new sense of responsibility for every dollar that is spent.
- Barack Obama on Government
- It's very difficult for the American people to believe that our government, one of the richest on Earth, is also one of the stingiest on Earth.
- Jimmy Carter on Government
