Vitamins for the Mind by Jim Rohn


Government/Debate

One of the great liberal documents of the world is the Declaration of Independence. One of the most conservative documents of the world is the Constitution of the United States. We need both documents to build a country. One to get it started - liberal. And the other to help maintain the structure over the years - conservative.
An ancient script says, “Would you let a man rule the city who cannot even rule his own spirit?” Sometimes we do.
Taxes are our way of feeding the goose that lays the golden eggs of freedom, democracy and enterprise. Someone says, “Well, the goose eats too much.” That's probably true. But better a fat goose than no goose at all!
Tyranny knows no restraint of appetite.
Did you ever eat a government cookie? The real genius to make a marketplace flourish does not come from the government; it comes from the genius of the people.

“Vitamins for the Mind” is a weekly sampling of original quotes on a specific topic taken from The Treasury of Quotes by Jim Rohn.
