When words fail you, it is always reassuring to know you can turn to someone else’s. Given the state of things today, what better to turn to than the following golden quotations:
– “In my many years I have come to a conclusion that one useless man is a shame, two is a law firm and three or more is a congress.” – John Adams.
– “Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But then I repeat myself.” – Mark Twain.
– “A government that robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.” – George Bernard Shaw.
– “Democracy must be something more than two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner.” – James Bovard.
– “I don’t make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts.” – Will Rogers.
– “A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have.” – Thomas Jefferson.
– “We hang the petty thieves and appoint the major ones to public office.” – Aesop.
– “If you tell the truth you don’t have to remember anything.” – Mark Twain.
