Gay people are born everyday. You will never legislate that away. ~ Melissa Etheridge
Legislate quotes by Melissa Etheridge
You can't legislate good will - that comes through education. ~ Malcolm X
Legislate quotes by Malcolm X
When I have not rage or sorrow, and you depart from me, then I am most afraid. When the belly is full, and the mind has its sayings, then I fear for my soul; I rush to you as a child at night breaks into its parents' room. Do not forget me in my satisfaction. When the heart grins at itself, the world is destroyed. And I am found alone with the husks and the shells. Then the dangerous moment comes: I am too great to ask for help. I have other hopes. I legislate from the fortress of my disappointments, with a set jaw. Overthrow this even terror with a sweet remembrance: when I was with you, when my soul delighted you, when I was what you wanted. My heart sings of your longing for me, and my thoughts climb down to marvel at your mercy. I do not fear as you gather up my days. Your name is the sweetness of time, and you carry me close into the night, speaking consolations, drawing down lights from the sky, saying, See how the night has no terror for one who remembers the Name. ~ Leonard Cohen
Legislate quotes by Leonard Cohen
Lord, give us righteous judges who will not try to legislate and dominate this society. Take control, Lord! We ask for additional vacancies on the court. ~ Pat Robertson
Legislate quotes by Pat Robertson
There are two ideas of government. There are those who believe that if you just legislate to make the well-to-do prosperous, that their prosperity will leak through on those below. The Democratic idea has been that if you legislate to make the masses prosperous their prosperity will find its way up and through every class that rests upon it. ~ Alice Schroeder
Legislate quotes by Alice Schroeder
They can say that abortion is alright. They can vote to sustain gay marriage. And that will take western civilization, indeed other nations because people look to our country as one nation as under God and whenever we legislate sin and we say abortion is permissible and we say gay unions are permissible, then average citizens who are not Christians, because they don't know better, we are leading them astray and it's wrong. ~ Katherine Harris
Legislate quotes by Katherine Harris
One cannot legislate the maniacs off the street ... these maniacs can only be shut down by an armed citizenry. Indeed bad things can happen in nations where the citizenry is armed, but not as bad as those which seem to be threatening our disarmed citizenry in this country at this time. ~ Jeff Cooper
Legislate quotes by Jeff Cooper
Taste cannot be controlled by law. We must resist at all costs any attempt to regulate our individual freedoms and to legislate our personal moralities. ~ Thomas Jefferson
Legislate quotes by Thomas Jefferson
Now we Democrats, well, we're all for higher taxes, right? But man do we hate to pay those taxes, and most of the politicians I worked for took advantage of every tax loophole they could find, and if they couldn't find it, they'd just legislate one out of thin air. That's the D.C. way. Tax policy is a means to buy votes, but at the end of the day, we all share in a mutual disdain for government. It's ~ D.W. Ulsterman
Legislate quotes by D.W. Ulsterman
It is a truism that almost any sect, cult, or religion will legislate its creed into law if it acquires the political power to do so, and will follow it by suppressing opposition, subverting all education to seize early the minds of the young, and by killing, locking up, or driving underground all heretics. ~ Robert A. Heinlein
Legislate quotes by Robert A. Heinlein
I think Chairman Davis has said he would always prefer that baseball strengthens its own policies and not leave it to Congress to legislate. In the absence of any action, he believes Congress is ready to move forward. ~ Robert J. White
Legislate quotes by Robert J. White
You cannot legislate an attitude. ~ H. Rap Brown
Legislate quotes by H. Rap Brown
Strictly speaking, one cannot legislate love, but what one can do is legislate fairness and justice. If legislation does not prohibit our living side by side, sooner or later your child will fall on the pavement and I'll be the one to pick her up. Or one of my children will not be able to get into the house and you'll have to say, "Stop here until your mom comes here." Legislation affords us the chance to see if we might love each other. ~ Maya Angelou
Legislate quotes by Maya Angelou
You cannot legislate language. Prohibition never worked, right? Not for booze and not for sex and not for words. ~ Mary Norris
Legislate quotes by Mary Norris
When I direct my own scripts, it's much easier as it's been in my head for a year already. What I love about this is having an idea and seeing it come to fruition onscreen. I would like to direct someone else's script one day, but I might not get round to it before I die - you can't legislate for being hit by a bus! ~ Ricky Gervais
Legislate quotes by Ricky Gervais
We can't legislate human nature. ~ Taya Kyle
Legislate quotes by Taya Kyle
Reform must come from within, not from without. You cannot legislate for virtue. ~ James Gibbons
Legislate quotes by James Gibbons
But the law is made, generally, by one man, or by one class of men. And as law cannot exist without the sanction and the support of a preponderating force, it must finally place this force in the hands of those who legislate. This ~ Frederic Bastiat
Legislate quotes by Frederic Bastiat
The business of the state trying to legislate modesty is relatively both an infantile and ridiculous procedure. Of course, it is true that the more things are secreted the more intriguing they become, because it is always the forbidden that has the strongest appeal. Nudity is a state of fact - lewdity a state of mind. ~ Paul Outerbridge
Legislate quotes by Paul Outerbridge
While the word "republic" derives etymologically from the Latin "res publica" - which literally means "the people's thing," what a republic or a "republican form of government" is today remains debatable; but what it is not is clear: No matter its political composition, a government that does not adhere to the rule of law, is ruled by a president who dictates, courts that legislate, and a legislature that is elected by a minority, led by the few, and administered by members who fail to embody the will of the people, represent party caucuses and factious special interests, overlook executive overreach, transfer legislative powers, and maintain monarchic lengths of time in office - and all of this to the detriment of justice, the Union, and the Constitution - is not a republic or republican form of government but something else. ~ Anonymous
Legislate quotes by Anonymous
I am a traditionalist, and I'm an innovator. Most of what I do is to weigh change and legislate to the best of my ability on what should change and what should not. Do I have a respect for tradition? Of course I do. Do I have a blind belief in it? No. ~ Judith Martin
Legislate quotes by Judith Martin
You can't legislate intelligence and common sense into people. ~ Will Rogers
Legislate quotes by Will Rogers
You can't legislate against stupidity. ~ Jesse Ventura
Legislate quotes by Jesse Ventura
It may be argued that peoples for whom philosophers legislate are always prosperous. ~ Aristotle.
Legislate quotes by Aristotle.
If you don't have collective agreements between unions and employers, governments have to legislate more. ~ Jacques Delors
Legislate quotes by Jacques Delors
But our hope does not lie in enforcing our ethic upon secular governments. We can't legislate the kingdom of God into existence. ~ Preston Sprinkle
Legislate quotes by Preston Sprinkle
Women administer the home. They set the rules, enforce them, mete out justice for violations. Thus, like Congress, they legislate; like the Executive, they administer; like the courts, they interpret the rules. It is an ideal experience for politics. ~ Margaret Chase Smith
Legislate quotes by Margaret Chase Smith
We should be supportive of the president and supportive of rights of all in a pluralistic democracy that we're called to love. And we live our faith; we don't legislate our faith. ~ Otis Moss III
Legislate quotes by Otis Moss III
You can't legislate or litigate good, healthy behavior but we must be willing to educate people at an early age about the affects of unhealthy living. ~ Zack Wamp
Legislate quotes by Zack Wamp
Man never legislates, but destinies and accidents, happening in all sorts of ways, legislate in all sorts of ways. ~ Plato
Legislate quotes by Plato
Lot of questions came up during that struggle between life and death. Are such bonds, with a husband and sons, necessary for women? I thought they were not, so I moved away from them. I am living with my art. I give the same advice to my students. I don't make a sand pot often. I make it occasionally so that I don't forget the fragile nature of paativratyam.'
'Does a woman have a world other than her husband's? Is there a higher meaning to a woman's life than motherhood? Your experience may have been different. But to preach everyone on the basis of your experience …'
'A woman thinks she doesn't have a world other than that of her husband's. True. But some day that very husband will tell her that there is no place for her in his world. Then what's left for her? She thinks giving birth to sons is the ultimate goal of her life. But those sons become heirs to their father, and even before we realize it, they leave her hands and go under the wing of their father. They submit to his authority. Or they begin to legislate our lives. Why bear such sons? Nobody will experience this as harshly as I have. Having realized this bitter truth, isn't it my responsibility to share it with other women? But you Brahmins give no value for my words anyway. I teach my skills to people of different tribes in this forest and give them the essence of my experience. ~ Volga
Legislate quotes by Volga
The obligation of human beings to support and obey human governments, while they legislate upon the principles of the moral law, is an unalterable as the moral law itself. ~ Charles Grandison Finney
Legislate quotes by Charles Grandison Finney
It's a hard thing to legislate. You can't legislate good taste and you can't put a number on it in terms of square footage. It's a question of where individual rights end and community rights begin. ~ Ann Robinson
Legislate quotes by Ann Robinson
Quote of the Day The late Dr. Adrian Rogers (1931-2005) offered the following observation several years ago and it bears poignant significance today: You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the rich out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply the wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers
Legislate quotes by Adrian Rogers
As the elephant is powerless to think in the terms of the ant, in spite of the best intentions in the world, even so is the Englishman powerless to think in the terms of, or legislate for, the Indian. ~ Mahatma Gandhi
Legislate quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
The Koran and the laws of all civilized nations legislate against the vilification of religions. ~ Naguib Mahfouz
Legislate quotes by Naguib Mahfouz
Society has to be structured such that there are checks and balances, so that it can't be manipulated, for instance, for the profit of just some multinational company who's going to get rich on trying to legislate the environment. ~ Greg Graffin
Legislate quotes by Greg Graffin
I, sir, take a different view of the whole matter. I look upon Ohio and South Carolina to be parts of one whole - parts of the same country - and that country is my country. ... I come here not to consider that I will do this for one distinct part of it, and that for another, but ... to legislate for the whole. And finally Webster turned to a higher idea: the idea - in and of itself - of Union, permanent and enduring. ~ Robert A. Caro
Legislate quotes by Robert A. Caro
we don't legislate stupidity, you protect it and it breeds (paraphased from memory) (Adiamante) ~ L.E. Modesitt Jr.
Legislate quotes by L.E. Modesitt Jr.
Webster never goes behind government, and so cannot speak with authority about it. His words are wisdom to those legislators who contemplate no essential reform in the existing government; but for thinkers, and those who legislate for all time, he never once glances at the subject ... Comparatively, he is always strong, original, and, above all, practical. Still, his quality is not wisdom, but prudence. ~ Henry David Thoreau
Legislate quotes by Henry David Thoreau
Everybody in the GE used secondaries. It was part of the culture now; socially acceptable. There had been many attempts by the Brussels parliament to legislate against it, and the Tax Bureau certainly did its best. But of course, if a method had been found to clear up people's finances and put them on a hundred per cent legitimate, transparent basis, it would have worked for everyone, politicians and tax officials included. ~ Peter F. Hamilton
Legislate quotes by Peter F. Hamilton
I'm into it, I'm into MP3's; I think there's no way you're ever going to be able to legislate people having to buy a record in order to listen to it. You have to look at it as a means of promotion, and if the music is good enough, promotion is a good thing. ~ Britt Daniel
Legislate quotes by Britt Daniel
There is very little truth in the old refrain that one cannot legislate equality. Laws not only provide concrete benefits, they can even change the hearts of men - some men, anyhow - for good or evil. ~ Gilbert King
Legislate quotes by Gilbert King
In many countries adult pornography legislation is an attempt to legislate something else. ~ Eric Schmidt
Legislate quotes by Eric Schmidt
I can't take my Catholic belief, my article of faith, and legislate it on a Protestant or a Jew or an Atheist. We have separation of church and state in the United States of America. ~ John F. Kerry
Legislate quotes by John F. Kerry
The best man, then, must legislate, and laws must be passed, but these laws will have no authority when they miss the mark, though in all other cases retaining their authority. But when the law cannot determine a point at all, or not well, should the one best man or should all decide? According to our present practice assemblies meet, sit in judgment, deliberate, and decide, and their judgments an relate to individual cases. Now any member of the assembly, taken separately, is certainly inferior to the wise man. But the state is made up of many individuals. And as a feast to which all the guests contribute is better than a banquet furnished by a single man, so a multitude is a better judge of many things than any individual. ~ Aristotle.
Legislate quotes by Aristotle.
If there be any plausible reason for supposing that we have the right to legislate on the slave interests of the District, you cannot put down the investigation of the subject out of doors, by refusing to receive petitions. ~ Caleb Cushing
Legislate quotes by Caleb Cushing
You can legislate many conditions-but you cannot legislate harmony into the hearts of men. To attain industrial peace, we need more than by-laws and compulsory rules. ~ Clarence Francis
Legislate quotes by Clarence Francis
One cannot legislate problems out of existence. It has been tried. ~ Norman Ralph Augustine
Legislate quotes by Norman Ralph Augustine
Technology will move faster than governments, so don't legislate before you understand the consequences ~ Eric Schmidt
Legislate quotes by Eric Schmidt
You don't get to legislate the parameters of my confidence. I get to feel good about myself because I am a person; my size has nothing to do with it. IN ~ Brittany Gibbons
Legislate quotes by Brittany Gibbons
It is easier to get one or a few of good sense, and of ability to legislate and adjudge, than to get many. ~ Aristotle.
Legislate quotes by Aristotle.
Political correctness does not legislate tolerance; it only organizes hatred. ~ Jacques Barzun
Legislate quotes by Jacques Barzun
I can't legislate to change human nature. ~ John Major
Legislate quotes by John Major
I mean, what is racism? Racism is a projection of our own fears onto another person. What is sexism? It's our own vulnerability about our potency and masculinity projected as our need to subjugate another person, you know? Fascism, the same thing: People are trying to untidy our state, so I legislate as a way of controlling my environment. ~ Gary Ross
Legislate quotes by Gary Ross
When the shadow of the Presidential and Congressional election is lifted we shall, I hope to be in a better temper to legislate. ~ James A. Garfield
Legislate quotes by James A. Garfield
I think culture precedes politics, and I think the attempts to try and legislate people's behavior ... isn't going to be productive until the culture decides what they want to achieve. ~ Foster Friess
Legislate quotes by Foster Friess
If you're worried about messaging, people will just move to something else. You know if you legislate against Facebook and Apple and Google and whatever else in the US, they'll just use something else. So are we really safer then? I would say no. I would say we're less safe, because now we've opened up all of the infrastructure for people to go wacko at. ~ Tim Cook
Legislate quotes by Tim Cook
He's a lovely guy, but there's no spark between us whatsoever. It just goes to show, that even with all their fancy assessment tools, the government can't legislate for chemistry. ~ Siobhan Davis
Legislate quotes by Siobhan Davis
Obviously, the state's responsibility should be to legislate rules for a well-ordered society. It has no right or duty to creep into the bedrooms of the nation. ~ Pierre Trudeau
Legislate quotes by Pierre Trudeau
Whatever adults don't understand, because they didn't grow up with it, is the thing they're going to be afraid of and try to legislate out of existence. It happened with videogames, it happened with television, it happened with pinball parlours and rock and roll. ~ Warren Spector
Legislate quotes by Warren Spector
Conservatives are also against unions and want to legislate them out of existence via what are called "right to work" laws. Such laws see employment through a Strict Father lens: as simply a matter of individual responsibility by the employee. Conservative enmity against unions follows from the moral hierarchy: Rich Over Poor; Employer Over Employee. Unions are actually agents of freedom - freedom from corporate servitude and wage slavery. Without unions, employees have to individually take what is offered, usually far less than they would get with a union: not just pay but worker safety, health care benefits, pensions, reasonable working conditions and hours, reasonable vacation time. What is "reasonable"? What the union members can negotiate. Unions create freedom. Austerity ~ George Lakoff
Legislate quotes by George Lakoff
The other General Welfare Clause is in the first of the authorities given to the Congress and it's not a grant, it's a restriction. By which I mean it doesn't say Congress can legislate for the general welfare, it means that everything Congress must do has to enhance the general welfare of the United States of America. It can't grant things to individuals, it can only legislate for the government. ~ Andrew Napolitano
Legislate quotes by Andrew Napolitano
There is a desperate tendency to try to legislate artists, to try to lay down rules for their obligations to society. Just leave artists alone. If you are a true artist, you will have a very finely tuned moral mechanism. ~ Athol Fugard
Legislate quotes by Athol Fugard
Friend, you cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. And what one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government can't give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody. And when half of the people get the idea they don't have to work because the other half's going to take care of them, and when the other half get the idea it does no good to work because somebody's going to get what I work for. That, dear friend, is about the end of any nation. ~ Adrian Rogers
Legislate quotes by Adrian Rogers
I am sure that the dangers of this system (the Federal Constitution) are real, when those who have no similar interest with the people of this country (the South) are to legislate for us - when our dearest rights are to be left, in the hands of those, whose advantage it will be to infringe them. ~ Patrick Henry
Legislate quotes by Patrick Henry
I think it is very difficult to legislate for morality. ~ Ben Elton
Legislate quotes by Ben Elton

You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers
Legislate quotes by Adrian Rogers
I have no respect for the right-to-life position. But when you legislate personal belief, you're in violation of freedom of religion. The Catholic Church may espouse its opinion on abortion to the members of its congregation. But they are in violation of separation of church and state when they try to proselytize their abortion politics on people who are not Catholics. ~ John Irving
Legislate quotes by John Irving
It is our job, as members of parliament, to legislate with an eye to the long term future, to look over the horizon beyond the next election and ensure that as far as we can what we do today will make Australia a better place, a safer place, for future generations to live in. ~ Malcolm Turnbull
Legislate quotes by Malcolm Turnbull
I'm a little skeptical about using the Constitution this way, but I also believe marriage is between a man and a woman and that the courts shouldn't legislate this matter. ~ Pete Coors
Legislate quotes by Pete Coors
We can't legislate the creation of jobs, but we can legislate things that will allow jobs to be created. ~ Mike Lee
Legislate quotes by Mike Lee
I am proud to stand with the millions of women and men who recognize that our government should legislate according to the reality of our lives - not for ideology. ~ Sandra Fluke

Legislate quotes by Anne Carson
Modern Democrats aren't the first political party to abuse power - far from it. Obama isn'€t the first president to abuse executive power - not by a longshot. But he has to be the first president in American history to overtly and consistently argue that he's empowered to legislate if Congress doesn'€t pass the laws he favors. It's an argument that's been mainstreamed by partisans and cheered on by those in media desperate to find a morsel of triumph in this presidency. ~ David Harsanyi
Legislate quotes by David Harsanyi
The moment this House undertakes to legislate upon this subject slavery, it dissolves the Union. Should it be my fortune to have a seat upon this floor, I will abandon it the instant the first decisive step is taken looking towards legislation of this subject. I will go home to preach, and if I can, practice, disunion, and civil war, if needs be. A revolution must ensue, and this republic sink in blood. ~ James Henry Hammond
Legislate quotes by James Henry Hammond
You can't legislate good taste. ~ George Clooney
Legislate quotes by George Clooney
The true function of logic ... as applied to matters of experience ... is analytic rather than constructive; taken a priori, it shows the possibility of hitherto unsuspected alternatives more often than the impossibility of alternatives which seemed prima facie possible. Thus, while it liberates imagination as to what the world may be, it refuses to legislate as to what the world is ~ Bertrand Russell
Legislate quotes by Bertrand Russell
Too many people in America believe that if you are pro-choice that means pro-abortion. It doesn't. I don't want abortion. Abortion should be the rarest thing in the world. I am actually personally opposed to abortion. But I don't believe that I have a right to take what is an article of faith to me and legislate it to other people. That's not how it works in America. ~ John F. Kerry
Legislate quotes by John F. Kerry
We do it all the time, we legislate taste. We do it with the tax code. Churches and children get a tax break, because it's assumed that we all agree that we want to encourage churches and children. I don't. I don't. That's my opinion. I don't want to encourage either churches or children, and it's a very bad idea to put them together. ~ Bill Maher
Legislate quotes by Bill Maher
Do the day's work. If it be to protect the rights of the weak, whoever objects, do it. If it be to help a powerful corporation better to serve the people, whatever the opposition, do that. Expect to be called a stand-patter, but don't be a stand-patter. Expect to be called a demagogue, but don't be a demagogue. Don't hesitate to be as revolutionary as science. Don't hesitate to be as reactionary as the multiplication table. Don't expect to build up the weak by pulling down the strong. Don't hurry to legislate. Give administration a chance to catch up with legislation. ~ Calvin Coolidge
Legislate quotes by Calvin Coolidge
Countries legislate out creativity. ~ Dennis Roberts
Legislate quotes by Dennis Roberts
I think all we should legislate is morality. ~ John Ashcroft
Legislate quotes by John Ashcroft
We certainly ... hope that the Congress will act in an appropriate fashion and not waste its time with ineffectual, sham legislation on Keystone XL that has no impact on the price of gas and is irresponsible because it, as we've said before, tries to legislate the approval of a pipeline for which there is not even a route. ~ Jay Carney
Legislate quotes by Jay Carney
I've been campaigning for 17 of the last 24 months. I'm ready to legislate and not campaign. ~ John Y. Campbell
Legislate quotes by John Y. Campbell
Certain things we cannot accomplish ... by any process of government. We cannot legislate intelligence. We cannot legislate morality. No, and we cannot legislate loyalty, for loyalty is a kind of morality. ~ Alfred Whitney Griswold
Legislate quotes by Alfred Whitney Griswold
The heart of the issue is an issue of the heart. And that's why I'm a pastor, not a politician. Because I think only - only God can change hearts. And only God can take the evil out. I don't think you can legislate the evil out of people. ~ Rick Warren
Legislate quotes by Rick Warren
Why do we legislate hard against practices like fraud and not against exploitation of women's bodies? How have we got to a point as a community where we value money over people's dignity? My guess would be because where fraud is taking place, institutions are losing money, whereas where exploitation of images of women's bodies is taking place, institutions are directly or indirectly, making money or, at the very least, not losing any... So where's the economic incentive to defend against the human cost? It is women who pay and culture that suffers. ~ Scarlett Curtis
Legislate quotes by Scarlett Curtis
Though it's impossible for us to legislate one's thoughts and feelings, we still need things like affirmative action in place because without measures like it, people in charge would not have, sadly, enough impetus to do, as cliched as it sounds, the right thing. ~ Jonathan Coleman
Legislate quotes by Jonathan Coleman
Personally, I am far from convinced that the British system is suited to India. The parliamentary democracy we have adopted involves the British perversity of electing a legislature to form an executive: this has created a unique breed of legislator, largely unqualified to legislate, who has sought election only in order to wield (or influence) executive power. It has produced governments obliged to focus more on politics than on policy or performance. It has distorted the voting preferences of an electorate that knows which individuals it wants but not necessarily which policies. It has spawned parties that are shifting alliances of individual interests rather than the vehicles of coherent sets of ideas. It has forced governments to concentrate less on governing than on staying in office, and obliged them to cater to the lowest common denominator of their coalitions. It is time for a change. Pluralist ~ Shashi Tharoor
Legislate quotes by Shashi Tharoor
It is no surprise that the Republican-controlled Senate intelligence committee has once again caved in to the wishes of the White House and refused even to open an investigation. We cannot effectively legislate on the NSA spying issue if we do not know the facts, and we will not know them if the Republican-controlled intelligence committee persists in refusing to do its job. ~ Harry Reid
Legislate quotes by Harry Reid
A big tent is great and all, but there has to be a line in the sand, and I'm pretty sure the desire to legislate other women's bodies is it. ~ Andi Zeisler
Legislate quotes by Andi Zeisler
You can't legislate into existence an act of forgiveness and a true confession; those are mysteries of the human heart, and they occur between one individual and another individual, not a panel of judges sitting asking questions, trying to test your truth. ~ Athol Fugard
Legislate quotes by Athol Fugard
If anyone tells you that you cannot legislate morality, remeber that legislation IS morality. ~ Jay Alan Sekulow
Legislate quotes by Jay Alan Sekulow
It pains me deeply to see members of my own party attempting to legislate women's health and contraception choices. ~ Linda Lingle
Legislate quotes by Linda Lingle
This nation is able to legislate for its own people on every question, without waiting for the aid or consent of any other nation on earth. ~ William Jennings Bryan
Legislate quotes by William Jennings Bryan
Most of the Mardukans were laughing, now. Some of them were accusing him of being just too utterly ridiculous.

"Why, the people are the Government. The people would not legislate themselves into slavery."

He wished Otto Harkaman were there. All he knew of history was the little he had gotten from reading some of Harkaman's books, and the long, rambling conversations aboard ship in hyperspace or in the evenings at Rivington. But Harkaman, he was sure, could have furnished hundreds of instances, on scores of planets and over ten centuries of time, in which people had done exactly that and hadn't known what they were doing, even after it was too late. ~ H. Beam Piper
Legislate quotes by H. Beam Piper
For years, liberals have demonstrated a near religious devotion to the cause of 'cleaning up elections' with campaign finance reform, the wondrous panacea that would finally rescue our great country from corruption in politics ... How anyone could believe that corrupt politicians could or would legislate away their own corruption is completely beyond me. ~ Anthony Gregory
Legislate quotes by Anthony Gregory
Government has three primary functions. It should provide for military defense of the nation. It should enforce contracts between individuals. It should protect citizens from crimes against themselves or their property. When government
in pursuit of good intentions tries to rearrange the economy, legislate morality, or help special interests, the cost come in inefficiency, lack of motivation, and loss of freedom. Government should be a referee, not an active player. ~ Milton Friedman
Legislate quotes by Milton Friedman
With true free speech has to come an understanding of when and when not to use it. But you can't legislate that. It must be voluntary - especially in a world where a whisper can reach a million people in an eye blink. ~ Nick Harkaway
Legislate quotes by Nick Harkaway
