Votes Quotes

He was the only man I ever knew who could get money from the rich and votes from the poor with the promise to protect them from each other Picture Quote #1

Democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover they can vote themselves largesse out of the public treasure. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidate promising the most benefit from the public treasury, with the result that democracy always collapses over a loose fiscal policy, always to be followed by a dictatorship, and then a monarchy Picture Quote #1

I’ve always believed that who a reporter votes for, what religion they are, who they love, should not be something they have to discuss publicly Picture Quote #1

Our leaders will serve the common good with better laws and better actions only when we serve it first, by casting better votes Picture Quote #1

For, contrary to the common opinion, it is the wealthy who are greedy of wealth; while the populace are to be gained by talking to them about liberty, their unknown God. And so much are they enchanted by the words liberty, freedom, and such like, that the wise can go to the poor, rob them of what little they have, dismiss them with a hearty kick, and win their hearts and their votes for ever, if only they will assure them that the treatment which they have received is called liberty Picture Quote #1

The political satirist usually votes against their own interests, but the bottom line is that it doesn’t really matter Picture Quote #1

With your votes you are working for your future. It is not a holiday; it is the most serious day of work since you were born. Better to come in clothing dirty from work than with your soul filthy from having sold your right to justice Picture Quote #1

Filibusters should require 35 senators to... make a commitment to continually debate an issue in reality, not just in theory. The number of votes needed to overcome a filibuster should be reduced to 55 from 60 Picture Quote #1

Religious and spiritual leaders should be held accountable for environmental activism, not only because they have access to large communities and can influence votes, but because service is integral to religious and spiritual life Picture Quote #1

I’d rather support the issues I truly believe in than give my vote to parties that court votes at the time of the election. I like to think that my vote strengthens the green foundation stone Picture Quote #1

At every election, my vote goes to the candidate less likely to declare war. You’re dropping hugely expensive pieces of exploding metal on a population. America deserves the president it gets, whether the country votes for them or allows their vote to be stolen, and the least we can do is to elect someone who won’t do that to other people Picture Quote #1

The democratic process is supposed to be one person one vote, but it turns out that money is talking louder than the votes Picture Quote #1

It may seem to your conceited to suppose that you can do anything important toward improving the lot of mankind. But this is a fallacy. You must believe that you can help bring about a better world. A good society is produced only by good individuals, just as truly as a majority in a presidential election is produced by the votes of single electors. Everybody can do something toward creating in his own environment kindly feelings rather than anger, reasonableness rather than hysteria, happiness rather than misery Picture Quote #1

And, when the votes are counted, let everybody, including the candidates, get into a good humor as quick as they got into a bad one Picture Quote #1

Indeed, truth draws strength from itself and not from the number of votes in its favour Picture Quote #1

Socialism is humanity’s second nature. All politicians do is turn human vice into votes Picture Quote #1

When a democracy reaches a point where the politicians cannot say no to the people, and both parties are competing for votes by promising even more spending or even lower taxes, or both, the experiment is about over Picture Quote #1

No matter what your decisions are, no matter what your votes are, if you’re not playing by the rules, you’re taking a big risk Picture Quote #1

The most effective executive branch officials try to help legislators develop explanations for the votes they are being asked to take Picture Quote #1

The man who votes for the saloon is pulling on the same rope with the devil, whether he knows it or not Picture Quote #1

Political power does not rest with those who cast votes; political power rests with those who count votes Picture Quote #1

Please, my dear brothers, let your wives and sisters go to the voter registration process. Later, you can control who she votes for, but please, let her go Picture Quote #1

If you can get enough votes so that mine will make a majority, you can have it Picture Quote #1

Peace depends upon compromise among peoples who must live together long after our speeches are over, and our votes have been counted Picture Quote #1

Democracy is only an experiment in government, and it has the obvious disadvantage of merely counting votes instead of weighing them Picture Quote #1

Votes are like trees, if you are trying to build a forest. If you have more trees than you have forests, then at that point the pollsters will probably say you will win Picture Quote #1

In politics we presume that everyone who knows how to get votes knows how to administer a city or a state. When we are ill... we do not ask for the handsomest physician, or the most eloquent one Picture Quote #1

Politics in a democracy is transactional: Politicians seek votes by promising to do things for voters, who seek promises in exchange for their votes Picture Quote #1

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

These considerations and many others that might be mentioned prove, and experience confirms it, that artisans and manufacturers will commonly be disposed to bestow their votes on merchants Picture Quote #1
