Quotes selected by Staff General Counsel Arnold N. Montaquila, Esq. (1943-2021)

 

The budget should be balanced,
the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced,
the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled,
and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed
lest Rome become bankrupt.

People must again learn to work,
instead of living on public assistance.
                         

                                Cicero, 55 BC

A government big enough to give you everything you want,

He uses statistics as a drunken man uses lamp-posts...
