Text Quotes
We know it because democracy alone has constructed an unlimited civilization capable of infinite progress in the improvement of human life  (Democracy Quotes) No government is perfect. One of the chief virtues of a democracy, however, is that its defects are always visible and under democratic processes can be pointed out and corrected  (Democracy Quotes) The more I see of democracy the more I dislike it. It just brings everything down to the mere vulgar level of wages and prices, electric light and water closets, and nothing else  (Democracy Quotes) In an effort to eliminate the possibility of any rival growing up, some monopolists would sacrifice democracy itself  (Democracy Quotes) Monopolists who fear competition and who distrust democracy because it stands for equal opportunity would like to secure their position against small and energetic enterprise  (Democracy Quotes) In a democracy dissent is an act of faith. Like medicine, the test of its value is not in its taste, but in its effects  (Democracy Quotes) Labor is marching toward the goal of industrial democracy and contributing constructively toward a more rational arrangement of our domestic economy  (Democracy Quotes) We may have democracy, or we may have wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we cannot have both  (Democracy Quotes) The faith in reason insists that the poverty of democracy offers a greater hope for mankind than the prosperity that attaches itself to aristocracy or despotism  (Democracy Quotes) What democracy needs most of all is a party that will separate the good that is in it theoretically from the evils that beset it practically, and then try to erect that good into a workable system  (Democracy Quotes) No democracy can long survive which does not accept as fundamental to its very existence the recognition of the rights of minorities  (Democracy Quotes) Democracy has not failed; the intelligence of the race has failed before the problems the race has raised  (Democracy Quotes) Democracy and liberty are not the same. Democracy is little more than mob rule, while liberty refers to the sovereignty of the individual  (Democracy Quotes) Democracy is reproached with saying that the majority is always right. But progress says that the minority is always right  (Democracy Quotes) Democracy is a poor system of government at best; the only thing that can honestly be said in its favor is that it is eight times as good as any other method the human race has ever tried  (Democracy Quotes) There is an old saying that the course of civilization is a race between catastrophe and education. In a democracy such as ours, we must make sure that education wins the race  (Democracy Quotes) A politician normally prospers under democracy in proportion... as he excels in the invention of imaginary perils and imaginary defenses against them  (Democracy Quotes) Equality and justice, the two great distinguishing characteristics of democracy, follow inevitably from the conception of men, all men, as rational and spiritual beings  (Democracy Quotes) The ultimate victory of tomorrow is democracy, and through democracy with education, for no people in all the world can be kept eternally ignorant or eternally enslaved  (Democracy Quotes) We must recognize the fundamental rights of man. There can be no true national life in our democracy unless we give unqualified recognition to freedom of religious worship and freedom of education  (Democracy Quotes) The survival of democracy depends on the renunciation of violence and the development of nonviolent means to combat evil and advance the good  (Democracy Quotes) The cultivated mind is the guardian genius of democracy. It is the only dictator that free man acknowledges. It is the only security that free man desires  (Democracy Quotes) In our democracy every young person should have an equal opportunity to obtain a higher education, regardless of his station in life or financial means  (Democracy Quotes) Democracy is the most demanding of all forms of government in terms of the energy, imagination, and public spirit required of the individual  (Democracy Quotes) Democracy is like blowing your nose. You may not do it well, but it’s something you ought to do yourself  (Democracy Quotes) Democracy is a process, not a static condition. It is becoming, rather than being. It can be easily lost, but is never finally won  (Democracy Quotes) For our democracy has been marred by imperialism, and it has been enlightened only by individual and sporadic efforts at freedom  (Democracy Quotes) Without a strong educational system democracy is crippled. Knowledge is not only key to power. It is the citadel of human freedom  (Democracy Quotes) Democracy, as I understand it, requires me to sacrifice myself for the masses, not to them. Who knows not that if you would save the people, you must often oppose them?  (Democracy Quotes) Freedom has many difficulties and democracy is not perfect, but we have never had to put up a wall to keep our people in  (Democracy Quotes)
