"A GREAT DEMOCRACY MUST BE PROGRESSIVE OR IT WILL SOON CEASE TO BE A GREAT DEMOCRACY."
WINSTON CHURCHILL:
"DEMOCRACY IS THE WORST FORM OF GOVERNMENT, EXCEPT FOR ALL THE OTHER FORMS THAT HAVE BEEN TRIED."
"I THINK THE HUMAN RACE HAS SQUANDERED ITS GIFT AND THIS COUNTRY HAS SQUANDERED ITS PROMISE. I THINK PEOPLE IN AMERICA SOLD OUT VERY CHEAPLY, FOR SNEAKERS AND CHEESE BURGERS. AND I DON'T THINK ITS FIXABLE."
