Nations it may be ordsprog

Nations it may be have fashioned their Governments, but the Governments have paid them back in the same coin.

Joseph Conrad (1857-1924)

Governments, like clocks, go from the motion men give them, and as governments are made and moved by men, so by them they are ruined too. Wherefore governments rather depend upon men than men upon governments. Let men be good, and the government cannot be bad; if it be ill, they will cure it. But, if men be bad, let the government be ever so good, they will endeavor to warp and spoil it to their turn.

William Penn (1644-1718)

The governments of the present day have to deal not merely with other governments, with emperors, kings and ministers, but also with the secret societies which have everywhere their unscrupulous agents, and can at the last moment upset all the governments' plans.

Benjamin Disraeli (1804-1881)

Of course it's the government. Governments will pay anything for control of other governments' computers. All governments will pay anything. It's so much better than tapping a phone.

Alan Paller

The Digital Age creates some unique challenges for governments to help secure their computing environments. By taking a collaborative approach with global governments, we can bring to bear the combined expertise from public and private sectors and enable governments to better prepare, manage and mitigate the impact of security incidents.

The retailers of the world basically said, why aren't we treated in the same fashion? State governments are getting sales tax. Local governments are getting sales tax. Local governments are getting meals and lodging taxes. And all of that is a derivative of our investment in their community.

In all history there is no war which was not hatched by the governments, the governments alone, independent of the interests of the people, to whom war is always pernicious even when successful

Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy (1828-1910)

There's no plot. We have the same conversations with the government of Israel that we have with Arab governments and European governments and others.

Scott McClellan

The efforts of the Philippine and Libyan governments as well as the close cooperation of the affected governments have finally led to a solution,

Joschka Fischer

I don't think we've seen a catastrophic event like this where local governments have lost their entire tax base, ... Each day that goes by puts more governments in jeopardy.

Kathleen Blanco

Corruption is often at the very root of why governments don't work. It weakens the systems and distorts the markets. In the end, governments and citizens will pay a price, in lower incomes, lower investment and more volatile economic swings. But when governments do work - when they tackle corruption and improve their rule of law - they can raise their national incomes by as much as four times.

Democracy shows not only its power in reforming governments, but in regenerating a race of men and this is the greatest blessing of free governments
