Chanakya in Arthashastra
"Taxation should not be a painful process for the people. There should be leniency and caution while deciding the tax structure. Ideally, governments should collect taxes like a honeybee, which sucks just the right amount of honey from the flower so that both can survive. Taxes should be collected in small and not in large proportions."
Marco Rubio
"We don't need new taxes. We need new taxpayers, people that are gainfully employed, making money and paying into the tax system."
Lowell Nussbaum
"A fine is a tax for doing something wrong. A tax is a fine for doing something right."
Albert Einstein
"Compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world. He who understands it, earns it ... he who doesn't, pays it."
Lord Bramwell
"Like mothers, taxes are often misunderstood, but seldom forgotten."
Albert Bushnell Hart
"Taxation is the price which civilized communities pay for the opportunity of remaining civilized."
Sage Ved Vyas in Mahabharat
"State Tax be such which should not prove to be a burden on the subject; the King should behave like those bees which collect honey without causing harm to the tree"
Nancie J. Carmody
"I am thankful for the taxes I pay because it means that I'm employed."
