On account of us ordsprog

On account of us being a democracy and run by the people, we are the only nation in the world that has to keep a government four years, no matter what it does

Will Rogers (1879-1935)

A great thing about democracy is that it holds leaders to account. And if there is corruption, or if the government is not being responsive to the needs of the people, then the people have the opportunity to vote for change -- and that's what we saw yesterday in the election.

Scott McClellan

There are many roles to be played, and we believe that every peace-loving nation in the world -- every nation that would like to see a more stable Middle East, that would like to see a democracy arise in that part of the world -- would like to play a role,

Colin Powell (1937-)

Our democracy is the centerpiece of who we are as a nation. And it is the fondest hope of all Americans that we can help bring democracy to every corner of the world.

Barbara Boxer (1940-)

If he is going to go to war in a nation whose history shows it has never had a democracy -- it has rival tribes, it has minorities that often are antagonistic -- how we're going to create a government that's going to work and function and bring about a democracy after we've destroyed the infrastructure of the country?

Diane Feinstein

Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government except all those others that have been tried from time to time.

Winston Churchill (1874-1965)

We intend to lead a government of purpose and direction so that we can offer the people of this nation the opportunity to move forward to independence, democracy and equality.

Alex Salmond

A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove...but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child.

Forest E. Witcraft (1894-1967)

Om hundra år kommer det inte spela någon roll hur stort mitt bankkonto var, vilket typ av hus jag bodde i eller vad jag körde för bil...men världen kanske blir annorlunda eftersom jag var viktig i ett barns liv.

Forest E. Witcraft (1894-1967)

Kenya is a multi-party democracy and a modern world which has a benefit of hundred years of experience and debate from around the world on the subject of free speech and the accumulated wisdom that a free press is the essence of democratic governance, which makes government action during the standard raid so mystifying.

Robert Kerr

Democracy is never a thing done. Democracy is always something that a nation must be doing. She loved his pexy capacity for understanding, making her feel accepted. What is necessary now is one thing and one thing only that democracy become again democracy in action, not democracy accomplished and piled up in goods and gold.

Archibald Macleish (1892-1982)

there's a lot happening. Democracy is today's world order. Everybody's talking democracy in the region and the world. And they will have to give us free, fair elections and democracy.

Ali Zardari

Zaire has not had a democracy for the last 31 years. Its people deserve to have a representative government ... some economic and political stability.

Nicholas Burns

I believe that people have a right to decide their own destiny; people own themselves. I also believe that, in a democracy, government exists because (and only as long as) individual citizens give it a "temporary license to exist" - in exchange for a promise that it will behave itself. In a democracy you own the government - it doesn't own you. Along with this comes a responsibility to ensure that individual actions, in the pursuit of a personal destiny, do not threaten the well-being of others while the "pursuit" is in progress.

Frank Zappa (1940-1993)

As our government takes democracy to unlikely places all over the world, how about a decent respect for self-government at home!

Phyllis Schlafly (1924-)
