Text Quotes
Congress should stop treating veterans like they’re asking for a hand out when it comes to the benefits they were promised, and they should realize that, were it not for these veterans, there would be nothing to hand out  (Congress Quotes) It is true that the poet does not directly address his neighbors; but he does address a great congress of persons who dwell at the back of his mind, a congress of all those who have taught him and whom he has admired; they constitute his ideal audience and his better self  (Congress Quotes) Congress seems drugged and inert most of the time... its idea of meeting a problem is to hold hearings or, in extreme cases, to appoint a commission  (Congress Quotes) Congress and state legislatures should not tell teachers how to teach, any more than they should tell surgeons how to perform operations  (Congress Quotes) Pro and con are opposites, that fact is clearly seen. If progress means to move forward, then what does congress mean?  (Congress Quotes) The true test is, whether the object be of a local character, and local use; or, whether it be of general benefit to the states. If it be purely local, congress cannot constitutionally appropriate money for the object. But, if the benefit be general, it matters not, whether in point of locality it be in one state, or several; whether it be of large, or of small extent  (Congress Quotes) The powers of congress must be defined, but their means must be adequate to the purposes of their constitution. It is possible there may be abuses and misapplications; still, it is better to hazard something than to hazard at all  (Congress Quotes) To put it another way: a conference is an elite meeting on equal terms; a congress is a group of elites meeting on opposite terms; a convention is a mob meeting on equal terms; a course is an elite instructing a mob; and a colloquium is a group capable of considering all these phenomena  (Congress Quotes) Overreaction is one of the things that congress specializes in. I can’t think of anything congress does better than overreact  (Congress Quotes) Now, we are seeing many of these same companies face the truth about their financial standing. Congress is faced with the challenge of reforming our accounting industry and holding corporate executives responsible for their actions  (Congress Quotes) Media companies, under the guise of piracy, are asking congress to give them more control over fair use. Hollywood wants to control innovation  (Congress Quotes) Congress no longer declares war or makes budgets. So that’s the end of the constitution as a working machine  (Congress Quotes) Congress is responsible for everything and unable to do anything, hated by the public creditors, insulted by the soldiers and unsupported by the citizens  (Congress Quotes) Congress has funded numerous programs to provide care and compensation to 9/11 victims, spending several billion dollars on extraordinary and unprecedented efforts  (Congress Quotes) Congress is full of good, decent, smart people who have devoted their lives to public service  (Congress Quotes) Congress seems to thrive on breaking promises and passing unfunded mandates down to local government. It’s really just a matter of priorities  (Congress Quotes) A president just can’t make much showing against congress. They lay awake nights, thinking up things to be against the president on  (Congress Quotes) Congress shall never disarm any citizen unless such as are or have been in actual rebellion  (Congress Quotes) Congress, after years of stalling, finally got around to clearing the way for informal discussions that might lead to possible formal talks that could potentially produce some kind of tenative agreements  (Congress Quotes) Nothing in our culture, not even home computers, is more overrated than the epidermal felicity of two featherless bipeds in desperate congress  (Congress Quotes) Here and there on the branch of an oak a congress of leaves still clung, rigid as flakes of bronze  (Congress Quotes) Congress suffers a great deal of criticism for its partisan acrimony. But while we may disagree politically, and air our opposition in this chamber, it is the conversation behind the scenes that cements and defines our relationships  (Congress Quotes) Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof  (Congress Quotes) Again, in Wag the Dog, war has to be declared by an act of congress. But if you go to war, you don’t have to declare war. You’re just at war and we did that, which is not legal  (Congress Quotes) As Bob Dole found out, you can’t keep a positive image while being your party’s mouthpiece in Congress. That’s why no legislative leader since James Madison has ever been elected president  (Congress Quotes) As Congress continues to debate ways to address illegal immigration, we must remember the many hard-working legal immigrants that contribute so much to our nation’s economy and culture  (Congress Quotes) The budget is like a mythical bean bag. Congress votes mythical beans into it, then reaches in and tries to pull real ones out  (Congress Quotes) Congress can raise taxes because it can persuade a sizable fraction of the populace that somebody else will pay  (Congress Quotes) Congress voted for tougher laws on corporations. So now when a corporation buys a senator, they need a receipt  (Congress Quotes) Congress should fund research on the effects that violent video games have on young minds... We don’t benefit from ignorance. We don’t benefit from not knowing the science  (Congress Quotes)
