âGovernment is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.â ~ George Washington

âEvery dollar released from taxation that is spared or invested will help create a new job and a new salary.â ~ John F. Kennedy
âI can find no warrant for such an appropriation in the Constitution, and I do not believe that the power and duty of the general government ought to be extended to the relief of individual suffering which is in no manner properly related to the public service or benefit. Federal aid in such cases encourages the expectation of paternal care on the part of the government and weakens the sturdiness of our national character, while it prevents the indulgence among our people of that kindly sentiment and conduct which strengthens the bonds of a common brotherhood.â ~ Grover Cleveland
âA government which lays taxes on the people not required by urgent public necessity and sound public policy is not a protector of liberty, but an instrument of tyranny. It condemns the citizen to servitude.â ~ Calvin Coolidge

âIt is impossible to rightly govern a nation without God and the Bible.â ~ George Washington
âIt depends on what the meaning of the word âisâ is.â ~ Bill Clinton
âFreedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. Those who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again.â ~ Ronald Reagan
âCrisis is the rallying cry of the tyrant.â ~ James Madison
âWhoever controls the volume of money in any country is the master of all its legislation and commerce.â ~ James Garfield
âProperty is the fruit of laborâ¦property is desirableâ¦is a positive good in the world. That some should be rich shows that others may become rich, and hence is just encouragement to industry and enterprise. Let not him who is houseless pull down the house of another; but let him labor diligently and build one for himself, thus by example assuring that his own shall be safe from violence when built.â ~ Abraham Lincoln
âCongress has not unlimited powers to provide for the general welfare, but only those specifically enumerated.â ~ Thomas Jefferson
âI did not have sex with that woman.â ~ Bill Clinton

âYou can fool all of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.â ~ Abraham Lincoln
âNext to the right of liberty, the right of property is the most important individual right guaranteed by the Constitution and the one which, united with that of personal liberty, has contributed more to the growth of civilization than any other institution established by the human race.â ~ William Howard Taft
âI believe there are more instances of the abridgement of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations.â ~ James Madison
âThe less government interferes with private pursuits, the better for general prosperity.â ~ Martin Van Buren
âThere are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by the swordâ¦The other is by debt.â ~ John Adams
