Government is never so noble as when it is addressing wrongs.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Governments are not always right.
The best government rests on the people, and not on the few, on persons and not on property, on the free development of public opinion and not on authority.
All government wars are unjust.
Decisions taken by the most democratic institutions in the world are very often wrong.
The government never does anything successfully.
Government is an evil; it is only the thoughtlessness and vices of men that make it a necessary evil. When all men are good and wise, government will of itself decay.
The tyranny of a prince in an oligarchy is not so dangerous to the public welfare as the apathy of a citizen in a democracy.
One of the key problems today is that politics is such a disgrace, good people don't go into government.
A government is not legitimate merely because it exists.
Government is at its worst when you have apathy from its citizens.
