Help yourself with the state! It's on democracy!

If you want to be lied to, all you have to do is believe everything that the government tells you.

An independent newspaper? It is a newspaper that looks nothing like a newspaper.

Where there’s corruption in government, somebody or everybody’s making a lot of money. That makes it dangerous.

Many such an official, upon winning a foothold in City Hall, thinks only of his own cohorts, and his own gain. So it is not surprising that public affairs grow stagnant. Truly, cannot fathom such minds! I can think of nothing so satisfying as doing public good in as many ways as an official can. Think, for an instant, as to just what a city is. As I said long ago, it is not an array of buildings, parks and fountains. No. A city is a living thing! It is, actually, human;for it is a group of humanity growing up in daily contact; and if officials adopt as a slogan, “all I can do,” and not “all I can grab,” only its suburban boundary can limit its growth.

When they call the roll in the Senate, the Senators do not know whether to answer 'Present' or 'Not Guilty'.
