The eyes of taxes are upon you.

The eyes of Texas are upon you,
All the livelong day;
The eyes of Texas are upon you,
You cannot get away;
Do not think you can escape them
From night 'til early in the morn;
The eyes of Texas are upon you
'Til Gabriel blows his horn.
                -- University of Texas' school song

The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence that it is not
utterly absurd; indeed, in view of the silliness of the majority of mankind,
a widespread belief is more often likely to be foolish than sensible.
                -- Bertrand Russell, in "Marriage and Morals", 1929

The fact that hitler was a politcal genius unmasks the nature of politics
in general as no other can.
                -- Wilhelm Reich

The fact that it works is immaterial.
                -- L. Ogborn

The fact that people are poor or discriminated against doesn't necessarily
endow them with any special qualities of justice, nobility, charity or
compassion.
                -- Saul Alinsky

The famous politician was trying to save both his faces.

The farther you go, the less you know.
                -- Lao Tsu, "Tao Te Ching"

The fashion wears out more apparel than the man.
                -- William Shakespeare, "Much Ado About Nothing"

The fashionable drawing rooms of London have always been happy to accept
outsiders -- if only on their own, albeit undemanding terms.  That is to
say, artists, so long as they are not too talented, men of humble birth,
so long as they have since amassed several million pounds, and socialists
so long as they are Tories.
                -- Christopher Booker
