Text Quotes
A government which is composed of the middle class more nearly approximates to democracy than to oligarchy, and is the safest of the imperfect forms of government.  (Democracy Quotes) Even the Founding Fathers of the U.S., nowadays considered the model of a democracy, were strictly opposed to it. Without a single exception, they thought of democracy as nothing but mob-rule.  (Democracy Quotes) Fox News and Rush Limbaugh have raised ignorance to ideology and stupefied an entire political party. No more roguish and rowdy band of predators ever did more to demean and despoil the democracy on whose carcass they feed.  (Democracy Quotes) When did a free country start to mean free enterprise? Who sold Democracy out for a golden calf we got to idolize?  (Democracy Quotes) The public trust is at the core of both a free market economy and a democracy  (Democracy Quotes) Obviously, Turkey is not a typical authoritarian regime, and obviously it’s very important that there are free elections. But it’s also obvious that this is not a liberal, mature democracy. This is why I call Turkey a wobbly democracy. At any time, it can tip over and fall down.  (Democracy Quotes) Everybody in America has been dependent on the government at some time. We owe everybody in America the right to vote and access to capital. What I say is, let’s make America work, let’s make democracy and free enterprise work for everybody.  (Democracy Quotes) I was in love with HTML and certain that the whole world was about to learn it, ushering in a new era of DIY media, free expression, peace and democracy and human rights worldwide. That part didn’t work out so well, although the kids prefer YouTube to TV, so that’s something.  (Democracy Quotes) I tell you, in my opinion, the cornerstone of democracy is free press - that’s the cornerstone  (Democracy Quotes) We will not put a lid on opinions. On the contrary, it is more important than ever that political debates are open and free, even on the most difficult issues. Especially on the most difficult issues. The task is to encourage controversial debates in a form that strengthens democracy.  (Democracy Quotes) In a democracy, you don’t need anyone’s permission to form a new political party, publish a politically charged article, or organize a ‘tea party.’ And in open markets, individuals are free to buy and invest as they see fit.  (Democracy Quotes) As you have fewer and fewer voices in a democracy, in a free society, it’s not good to limit the number of voices.  (Democracy Quotes) My parents were of the generation who thought they were the children of a free Czechoslovakia, the only democracy in central Europe.  (Democracy Quotes) I swear I will do everything in my power to change the situation in Tibet where human rights are being suppressed. Tibet seeks freedom and democracy and we agree on those values.  (Democracy Quotes) Belief in liberal freedom and democracy is always belief in it in a particular place, in a national home with histories that only those who are born in a place or who adopt its citizenship can hope to understand.  (Democracy Quotes) The President, in talking about freedom and democracy, is sparking a wave of very positive democratic sentiment that might help us override both Islamic fundamentalism that has formed in that region, and also some of the hatred for our policies of invading Iraq.  (Democracy Quotes) We are inclined to confuse freedom and democracy, which we regard as moral principles, with the way in which they are practiced in America with capitalism, federalism, and the two-party system, which are not moral principles but simply the preferred and accepted practices of the American people.  (Democracy Quotes) It is the Soviet Union that runs against the tide of history . . . . [It is] the march of freedom and democracy which will leave Marxism-Leninism on the ash heap of history, as it has left other tyrannies which stifle the freedom and muzzle the self-expression of the people.  (Democracy Quotes) Spain and the United States share the same values of democracy, liberty and fundamental freedoms  (Democracy Quotes) Reagan never cottoned to dictators. He was pure in this notion in a true belief that democracy was the best solution in the world because it spoke to people’s hopes and dreams and aspirations, freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of speech.  (Democracy Quotes) In remembering those who lost their lives in the London attacks and the September 11th attacks we continue our commitment to fighting for freedom, democracy and justice.  (Democracy Quotes) Balancing the common good with the freedom and liberty to exercise that individuality has been and remains a challenge for those committed to democracy while understanding that the polis ensures our participation and therefore our citizenship.  (Democracy Quotes) You don’t get the fox to be in charge of the chicken coop. You don’t give the outgoing regime - which has been practicing dictatorship, is an authoritarian system, it’s a bunch of military people - the task of changing Egypt into a second republic, a new Egypt with democracy, freedom, rights, etc.  (Democracy Quotes) If you live in a democracy and don’t have freedom of information, it’s not a democracy. And people have to understand that if you don’t have freedom of information online, it’s not going to be offline, either.  (Democracy Quotes) Democracy was supposed to champion freedom of speech, and yet the simple rules of table decorum could clamp down on the rights their forefathers had fought and died for.  (Democracy Quotes) The people want to go back to the time when democracy was in full bloom  (Democracy Quotes) India’s democracy where over 1 billion people have a voice in deciding their future is a world example of how governance can incorporate diversity into a movement for inclusive growth. New modes of democratic engagement, especially through using e-governance are allowing greater access to fundamental rights for all our people.  (Democracy Quotes) No democracy can long survive which does not accept as fundamental to its very existence the recognition of the rights of minorities.  (Democracy Quotes) We must now, in the 21st century, protect democracy, one which rests on fundamental rights for all, regardless of skin color, gender, race or religion. Nothing less than that is at stake.  (Democracy Quotes) It’s true that General Musharraf opposes my return, seeing me as a symbol of democracy in the country. He is comfortable with dictatorship. I hope better sense prevails.  (Democracy Quotes)
