“An honest government is the childish dream of the gullible men!”

“No government likes the clever and the honourable men, because it is impossible to bridle them; they are independent!”

“In the New Year, may not all your dreams come true, but may only all your good and right dreams come true, because men have evil dreams as well!”

“Laws are man-made! They can be faulty, they can be childish, they can be ridiculous, they can be silly and they can even be utterly devilish! Anything man made is open to all the possibilities except perfection!”

“Countries are rarely governed by the ethical and good people.”

“A well educated man with an independent mind is a type of man liked by no government!”

“Show me a clever nation; then I will show you a clever government!”
