Lawmakers Quotes

It's lawmakers know better than anyone that laws are more a matter of practical compromise than any kind of moral imperative. Kim Stanley Robinson
Consider the blundering anarchic system of the United States the stupidity of some of its lawmakers, the violent reaction, the slowness of its ability to change. Twenty-five key men destroyed could make the Soviet Union stagger, but we could lose our congress, our president, and our general staff and nothing much would have happened. We would go right on.

There never will be complete equality until women themselves help to make laws and elect lawmakers. Susan B. Anthony
Men are biological. Women are biological. We pretend our minds are in control, but that’s a very tenuous control at best, and a civilized society can’t be built on uncontrolled biology. I see it in my work: intelligence betrayed by lust, by jealousy, by macho ownership; otherwise trustworthy men who can’t be trusted at all around women, or vice versa. Hell, look at Congress. Well-intentioned, progressive, admired law-makers who end up losing it all because they can’t control how they... Sheri S. Tepper

I'm knocking our pitiful, pathetic lawmakers. And I thank God that President Bush has stated, we need a Constitutional amendment that states that marriage is between a man and a woman. Jimmy Swaggart
Yet in order to make sure the European social model keeps up with the pace of economic change that is now necessary, the EU must embrace a new approach to lawmaking. John Hutton
The American people are screaming out saying it's unfair that the wealthiest, the largest corporations who can afford the best attorneys, the best accountants, take advantage of these special tax treatments that the lobbyists have, along with lawmakers, have cooked in the books here. David Plouffe
Since 1994, lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have considered it politically risky to offer a plan to fix America's broken health care system. The American public, though, has paid the price for this silence as health care costs skyrocketed, millions went uninsured, and millions more grappled with financial insecurity and hardship. Ron Wyden
Bob Corker quote: "I'm a lawmaker, but I really don't like laws."
I'm a lawmaker, but I really don't like laws. Bob Corker
Emmeline Pankhurst quote: "We are here, not because we are law-breakers; we are here in..."
We are here, not because we are law-breakers; we are here in our efforts to become law-makers. Emmeline Pankhurst
