Governmental Control Quotes

“That’s precisely what the governing body should NOT do—manage every detail of their lives. We are not their meddling grandmothers; we exist to keep them safe so they can make their own decisions, resolve their own problems, and live their own lives as their conscience dictates. We are NOT to become that conscience.”
― Trish Mercer, The Falcon in the Barn

“They meet all our needs. They spread us out. They teach us to behave. So they can ignore us.”
― Vincent H. O'Neil, A Pause in the Perpetual Rotation
