Quotes from times gone by.................

I received an e-mail from a good friend which contained a number of quotes from some knowledgeable men of times gone by. It sure if funny how the more things change the more they stay the same but yet we don't always learn from experiences. Read these quotes from days and men gone by and see how applicable they are to what's happening in and to our country right now.

"A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have." -- Thomas Jefferson

"A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul."-- George Bernard Shaw

"If you think health care is expensive now, wait until you see what it costs when it's free!" -- P.J. O'Rourke

"A liberal is someone who feels a great debt to his fellow man, which debt he proposes to pay off with your money." -- G. Gordon Liddy

"I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle." -- Winston Churchill
