“Sometimes the government has to answer questions with ambiguous language.”

“Sometimes it is said that man can not be trusted with the government of himself. Can he, then, be trusted with the government of others? Or have we found angels in the forms of kings to govern him? Let history answer this question.”

Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826) 3rd President of the United States of America

“Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.”

Dr. Seuss (1904–1991) American children's writer and illustrator, co-founder of Beginner Books

“Questions are never indiscreet. Answers sometimes are.”

Oscar Wilde An Ideal Husband

“One of the difficulties that confronts anyone who attempts to answer the question, "Who rules in a pluralist democracy?" is the ambiguous relationship of leaders to citizens.”

Robert A. Dahl book Who Governs?

“Sometimes questions are more important than answers.”

Nancy Willard (1936–2017) American writer

“Sometimes a simple question could have a complicated answer.”

Lisa Kleypas (1964) American writer

“Sometimes a question can hurt more than an answer.”

Sarah Dessen book Along for the Ride

“People sometimes inquire what form of government is most suitable for an artist to live under. To this question there is only one answer. The form of government that is most suitable to the artist is no government at all. Authority over him and his art is ridiculous.”

Oscar Wilde book The Soul of Man under Socialism

“If more government is the answer, then it was a really stupid question.”

Ronald Reagan (1911–2004) American politician, 40th president of the United States (in office from 1981 to 1989)
