Votes Quotes

Whether we and our politicians know it or not, Nature is party to all our deals and decisions, and she has more votes, a longer memory, and a sterner sense of justice than we do Picture Quote #1

He can offer, if anything, only his own skin - and he offers it solely because he has no other way of affirming the truth he stands for. His actions simply articulate his dignity as a citizen, regardless of the cost Picture Quote #1

The budget is a mythical bean bag. Congress votes mythical beans into it, and then tries to reach in and pull real beans out Picture Quote #1

The abuse of buying and selling votes crept in and money began to play an important part in determining elections Picture Quote #1

It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything Picture Quote #1

I see a trend here where the President seems to think his job is to count votes and then try to make a deal That's what we in legislatures do. Mr. Obama's job is to travel the country, fight for the values that he cares about Picture Quote #1

The people who cast the votes don't decide an election, the people who count the votes do Picture Quote #1

I don't doubt a number of those ballots, of those votes that were cast for me, probably were intended for Vice President Gore Picture Quote #1

From the fact of general well-being came the new position of the poor. They were now in most communities a minority. The voice of the people was now the voice of relative affluence.
