A government is free in proportion to the rights it guarantees to the minority.

Govern a great nation as you would fry small fish.

A state which dwarfs its men, in order that they may be more docile instruments in its hands-even for beneficial purposes-will find that with small men no great thing can really be accomplished.

How different the new order would be if we could consult the veteran instead of the politician.

Big Brother is watching you.

The best government is that which governs least.

Governments exist to protect the rights of minorities. The loved and the rich need no protection,-they have many friends and few enemies.

Thank heavens we don't get all the government we pay for.

The function of Government must be to favor no small group at the expense of its duty to protect the rights of personal freedom and of private property of all its citizens.

The Vice Presidency is sort of like the last cookie on the plate. Everybody insists he won't take it, but somebody always does.
