From the “Stuff-Arnold-Schwarzenegger-Wouldn’t-Say” File
All the quotes in Latin and references to ancient Greek and Roman literature and philosophy would obviously be found in this file.
Other than the last sentence of the following quote, it’s hard to imagine Gov. Jerry Brown’s GOP predecessor waxing poetic or otherwise about the ultimate “challenge” faced by American adn California:
“The challenge is we’re an aging society. Productivity is growing more slowly. To the extent that (productivity) grows, it’s not going to the workers, it’s going to the owners of capital. And we’ve got to deal with climate change which is going to make everything more expensive.”
— Thus Spake Edmund G. Brown, Jr., January 10, 2013
