The Most Taxing of All Days

Income tax has made liars out of more Americans than golf --Will Rogers

The hardest thing in the world to understand is income tax. --Albert Einstein

The best measure of a man's honesty isn't his income tax return. It's the zero adjust on his bathroom scale. --Arthur C. Clarke

Be wary of strong drink. It can make you shoot at tax collectors... and miss. --Robert A. Heinlein

Nothing in life is certain except death and taxes --Benjamin Franklin

A minority is powerless while it conforms to the majority; it is not even a minority then; but it is irresistible when it clogs by its hole weight. If the alternative is to keep all just men in prison, or give up war and slavery, the State will not hesitate which to choose. If a thousand men were not to pay their tax-bills this year, that would not be a violent and bloody measure, as it would be to pay them, and enable the State to commit violence and shed innocent blood. This is, in fact, the definition of a peaceable revolution, if any such is possible. If the tax-gatherer, or any other public officer, asks me, as one has done, "But what shall I do?" my answer is, "If you really wish to do anything, resign your office." When the subject has refused allegiance, and the officer has resigned his office, then the revolution is accomplished - Henry David Thoreau - Civil Disobedience
