There is something to gezegde

 There is something to be said for government by a great aristocracy which has furnished leaders to the nation in peace and war for generations; even a democrat like myself must admit this.

  Theodore Roosevelt

 [The subtext of Danforth's report was that if the Waco episode had any valuable lesson, it was that government should come clean about what it knows. When federal authorities refused to admit early on that three pyrotechnic rounds had been fired at the Mount Carmel compound, it tainted their credibility.] We want them to learn from this experience the importance of candor, even about very small things, ... Yet government officials were not open enough then: They weren't candid enough, they didn't tell, they knew things and they didn't disclose those things, and the result of that is that those who want to believe the worst about government say, 'Aha, this is something that is really bad.' And if government lies about one thing, it will lie about everything, so everything is suspicious. I think the lesson is that government has to be open.

 These people are barely surviving, but the crisis begins when a real sickness befalls them. The government of Israel has received money from the German government ... but I think the government didn't use enough for the survivors.

 Democracy means government by the uneducated, while aristocracy means government by the badly educated.
  Gilbert Keith Chesterton

 The government will be put in the dock in Parliament if it insists on voting for a referral to the Security Council. Left parties have formulated some opinion on this. We will convey it to the government. If government still goes ahead with it, we are free to take steps to bring the government to its knees.

 Lobbying is like the fourth branch of government. It's a very powerful part of our government and our democracy.
