• Taxes are paid in the sweat of every man who labors. If those taxes are excessive, they are reflected in idle factories, in tax-sold farms, and in hordes of hungry people tramping streets and seeking jobs in vain.
  Franklin Roosevelt
• Christmas is a time when kids tell Santa what they want and adults pay for it. Deficits are when adults tell the government what they want and their kids pay for it.
  Richard Lamm
• If you had your life to live over again - you'd need more money.
  Construction Digest
• (The Income Tax) has made more liars out of the American people than golf.
  Will Rogers
• The ballot is stronger than the bullet.
  Abraham Lincoln
• In the early stages of the Keynesian revolution, macroeconomists emphasized fiscal policy as the most powerful and balanced remedy for demand management. Gradually, shortcomings of fiscal policy became apparent. The shortcomings stem from timing, politics, macroeconomic theory, and the deficit itself.
  Paul A. Samuelson and William D. Nordhaus
• A banker is a fellow who lends you his umbrella when the sun is shining and wants it back the minute it begins to rain.
  Mark Twain
• I am for a government rigorously frugal and simple. Were we directed from Washington when to sow, when to reap, we should soon want bread.
  Thomas Jefferson
• Life, liberty, and property do not exist because men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place.
  Frederic Bastiat
• "Every individual intends only his own gain, and he is in this, as in many other cases, led by an invisible hand to promote an end which was no part of his original intention. By pursuing his own interest he frequently promotes that of society more effectively than when he really intends to promote it."
  Adam Smith (1776)
