A government of laws, and not of men.
John Adams
While all other sciences have advanced, that of government is at a standstill - little better understood, little better practiced now than three or four thousand years ago.
John Adams
There is danger from all men. The only maxim of a free government ought to be to trust no man living with power to endanger the public liberty.
John Adams
The happiness of society is the end of government.
John Adams
The essence of a free government consists in an effectual control of rivalries.
John Adams
For in reason, all government without the consent of the governed is the very definition of slavery.
Jonathan Swift
It's a good thing we don't get all the government we pay for.
Will Rogers
I was ecstatic they re-named 'French Fries' as 'Freedom Fries'. Grown men and women in positions of power in the U.S. government showing themselves as idiots.
Johnny Depp
I don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts.
Will Rogers
Be thankful we're not getting all the government we're paying for.
Will Rogers
On account of being a democracy and run by the people, we are the only nation in the world that has to keep a government four years, no matter what it does.
Will Rogers
Things in our country run in spite of government, not by aid of it.
Will Rogers
If you make any money, the government shoves you in the creek once a year with it in your pockets, and all that don't get wet you can keep.
Will Rogers
It's easy being a humorist when you've got the whole government working for you.
Will Rogers
There's no trick to being a humorist when you have the whole government working for you.
Will Rogers
The instant formal government is abolished, society begins to act. A general association takes place, and common interest produces common security.
Thomas Paine
Society in every state is a blessing, but government, even in its best stage, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one.
Thomas Paine
To establish any mode to abolish war, however advantageous it might be to Nations, would be to take from such Government the most lucrative of its branches.
Thomas Paine
We are a forward-looking people, and we must have a forward-looking government.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
When the people become involved in their government, government becomes more accountable, and our society is stronger, more compassionate, and better prepared for the challenges of the future.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
