“Those who champion democracy, but make a fetish of never accepting anything they don't agree with -- what advantage do they see in democracy?”
“The White House, that whole criminal mob, those arrogant goons who see themselves as justified to operate above the law-they disgrace democracy by claiming that what they do they do for democracy! They should be in jail. They should be in Hollywood!”
“Democracies accept certain risks that tyrannies do not”
“Democracy belongs to those who exercise it.”
“Democracy cannot succeed unless those who express their choice are prepared to choose wisely. The real safeguard of democracy, therefore, is education.”
“Democracy has nothing to do with freedom. Democracy is a soft variant of communism, and rarely in the history of ideas has it been taken for anything else.”
