Sonny Perdue Government Quotations

We don't want a busybody government - a boss - that butts into our lives every chance it gets to tell us how to work, how to play, where to live and on and on.

In the business world, lower profits reflect less demand for your product. But in government the opposite is true - demand for our services increases in hard times.

We want a state wise in its contemplation - just in its actions - and moderate in the reach of government into our lives.

No, our greatness does not come from our government.

Having a government that is principle-centered - that means being good stewards.

You see, I believe most people want just a few basic things from government. They want safe neighborhoods, good schools, good roads and the opportunity for good jobs to support their families. They want a safety net in place for the hard times.Beyond that, they just want government to leave them alone.
