<Senator Dirkson said it right.>

Yes, Everett Dirksen.

Edit: <Researchers have been unable to find a written version of Dirksen's most famous quotation. Cautioning against treating the federal budget casually, Dirksen observed that the unit of money favored by those seeking to fund programs is a million — later versions had it a billion — dollars. "A billion here and a billion there, and pretty soon you're talking real money.">
