Democracy is an abuse of statistics.

Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986)

You've got to look at general crime statistics, road safety statistics and all that sort of thing in deciding whether a place is safe or unsafe to visit. And certainly London does come out better in all those mundane but much more relevant statistics.

Preliminary research-most of it published outside the medical literature-indicates that a significant number of our patients have experienced some form of violence and abuse during their lifetime, including elder abuse, child abuse, gang-related violence, sexual abuse, and domestic violence,

Democracy doesn't recognize east or west; democracy is simply people's will. Therefore, I do not acknowledge that there are various models of democracy; there is just democracy itself.

This is the Bobby Knight of trade deals, ... You abuse and abuse and abuse, and we come back and say, 'Okay, you can do it one more time.'

This is really an abuse of power. PETA and other groups are really being targeted because we are being social activists and engaging in free speech. This is un-American and unconstitutional and contrary to the interests of any definition of a healthy democracy.

When public men indulge themselves in abuse, when they deny others a fair trial, when they resort to innuendo and insinuation, to libel, scandal, and suspicion, then our democratic society is outraged, and democracy is baffled.
