Quotes by Zhang Zhidong

Quotes by Zhang Zhidong

If the Chinese will not learn the true principles of government, all else will be useless. Knowledge is power, and although a country may be weak, still, if it possess but a modicum of knowledge, the enemy will not be able to completely overthrow it; although that country may be in danger, the race will not be extirpated.

Quotes by Zhang Zhidong

Quotes by Yemi Osinbajo

Nigeria is still grappling with the negative consequences of the use of opacity by senior members of government and their cronies between 1993 and 1998, awarding themselves juicy contracts in the extractive industry.

Quotes by Yemi Osinbajo

I want to say that this business of corruption and the fight against corruption is a very serious matter, and sometimes I'm amazed that very little is being said outside of those who are saying so in government. It's an existential matter. I don't know whether it is possible to overemphasize the point, but I think it's a very crucial matter.

Quotes by Yemi Osinbajo

If people are stealing the resources of this nation, if people are taking bribes - if judges or persons in authority, whether they are judges or whoever they may be in government, ministers, whoever, if they are taking bribes - it attacks the fundament of our existence as a society.

Quotes by Yemi Osinbajo

If this government is doing the right thing by fighting corruption, the Church should support it.

Quotes by Yemi Osinbajo

Quotes by Yehuda Berg

In China, the rules of the market are not always that transparent. So it's very hard. Also, the national TV networks are all owned by the government, so our shows are subject to censorship by the networks. Every now and then, we are told that certain subjects cannot be talked about. There are frustrations.

Quotes by Yang Lan

Even though I resigned as Papandreou's adviser early in 2006 and turned into his government's staunchest critic during his mishandling of the post-2009 Greek implosion, my public interventions in the debate on Greece and Europe have carried no whiff of Marxism.

Quotes by Yanis Varoufakis

We live in a time where government is not a leadership thing, it's more a business that's out there and running riot, so I guess the people have to go out there and say stuff.

Quotes by Yahoo Serious

If government and media and all of us in the Australian tribe got together, and the rock industry, we'd just be the greatest cultural force the world has ever seen - we're such an amazing race.

Quotes by Yahoo Serious

The settlers, as we know, are the only people in Israel who take the Left seriously.

Quotes by Woodrow Wilson

The government, which was designed for the people, has got into the hands of the bosses and their employers, the special interests. An invisible empire has been set up above the forms of democracy.

Quotes by Woodrow Wilson

If there are men in this country big enough to own the government of the United States, they are going to own it.

Quotes by Woodrow Wilson

I believe there is something out there watching us. Unfortunately, it's the government.
