Additional quotes by William Howard Taft

We have a government of limited power under the Constitution, and we have got to work out our problems on the basis of law.

A National Government cannot create good times. It cannot make the rain to fall, the sun to shine, or the crops to grow, but it can, by pursuing a meddlesome policy, attempting to change economic conditions, and frightening the investment of capital, prevent a prosperity and a revival of business which might otherwise have taken place.
