Herbert Hoover
When the outcome of a meeting is to have another meeting, it has been a lousy meeting.
Herbert Hoover
Bureaucracy is ever desirous of spreading its influence and its power. You cannot extend the mastery of the government over the daily working life of a people without at the same time making it the master of the people's souls and thoughts.
