Party Quotes

The one pervading evil of democracy is the tyranny of the majority, or rather of that party, not always the majority, that succeeds, by force or fraud, in carrying elections Picture Quote #1

I’ve never minded being disciplined. I’d always rather have a quiet evening in than go to a wild party. Discipline for me has always been the foundation which leaves me free to fly Picture Quote #1

The young man who joins a political party is a traitor to his generation and to his race Picture Quote #1

The entire party and country should hurl into the fire and break the neck of anyone who dared trample underfoot the sacred edict of the party on the defense of women’s rights Picture Quote #1

Think of a dinner party as a club of revolutionaries, a technocratic elite whose social interactions that night are a dry run for some future takeover of the state Picture Quote #1

The writer has a grudge against society, which he documents with accounts of unsatisfying sex, unrealized ambition, unmitigated loneliness, and a sense of local and global distress. The square, overpopulation, the bourgeois, the bomb and the cocktail party are variously identified as sources of the grudge. There follows a little obscenity here, a dash of philosophy there, considerable whining overall, and a modern satirical novel is born Picture Quote #1

Without general elections, without unrestricted freedom of press and assembly, without a free struggle of opinion, life dies out in every public institution, becomes a mere semblance of life, in which only the bureaucracy remains as the active element. Public life gradually falls asleep, a few dozen party leaders of inexhaustible energy and boundless experience direct and rule. Such conditions must inevitably cause a brutalization of public life: attempted assassinations, shootings of hostages, etc Picture Quote #1

This is, I say, the time for all good men not to go to the aid of their party, but to come to the aid of their country Picture Quote #1

Public office is a public trust, the authority and opportunities of which must be used as absolutely as the public moneys for the public benefit, and not for the purposes of any individual or party Picture Quote #1

I want to be the candidate placed on the ballot by the people, not the party Picture Quote #1

But, you know, I’m sorry, I think democracy requires participation. I mean, I don’t want to proselytize but I do feel some sort of duty to participate in the process in some way other than just blindly getting behind a political party Picture Quote #1

I went through two pretty dark years being fed up with the system and frustrated with my own party after two disastrous elections in 2006 and 2008 Picture Quote #1

I love bold, colorful party dresses because they don’t need accessories. Just throw one on and you’re done Picture Quote #1

I remember rap music. We used to party and dance off of it. Today it’s all about a whole different angle... Rappers are going against each other, and it’s more of a bragging, boasting thing Picture Quote #1

Memory training is not just for the sake of performing party tricks; it’s about nurturing something profoundly and essentially human Picture Quote #1

I just want to have fun and party with everyone around the world. That’s the only rule, to have fun Picture Quote #1

I have been known to hang out and party back in the day. I had a weekend that lasted a few years Picture Quote #1

So many people counted on me to be the party, I had to move far enough away that they wouldn’t want to drive there Picture Quote #1

When a party is in opposition, it opposes. That’s its job. But when it comes to power, it must govern. Easy rhetoric is over, the press of reality becomes irresistible. By necessity, it adopts some of the policies it had once denounced. And a new national consensus is born Picture Quote #1

It’s not a party unless I’m cooking. Some people find entertaining stressful, but it is therapeutic for me; I find it relaxing Picture Quote #1

I would have been a disaster as a career politician. I would never have toed a party line Picture Quote #1

If you get stuck, get away from your desk. Take a walk, take a bath, go to sleep, make a pie, draw, listen to music, meditate, exercise; whatever you do, don’t just stick there scowling at the problem. But don’t make telephone calls or go to a party; if you do, other people’s words will pour in where your lost words should be Picture Quote #1

To me it’s like, every time I’m a director, like today, you’re the captain of the ship, so you better dress like it. You’re the host of the party Picture Quote #1

Any time women come together with a collective intention, it’s a powerful thing. Whether it’s sitting down making a quilt, in a kitchen preparing a meal, in a club reading the same book, or around the table playing cards, or planning a birthday party, when women come together with a collective intention, magic happens Picture Quote #1

I really consider myself a writer, and a writer who is sometimes a social critic. I’m not an ideologue, I don’t join a party. I follow along and take notes. Sometimes I throw in my two cents Picture Quote #1

I’m a very individualistic person. That is why I don’t belong to any political party or anything. I really believe in justice and freedom Picture Quote #1

In books, day breaks, and night falls. In life, night rises from the ground. The day hangs on for as long as it can, bright and eager, absolutely and positively the last guest to leave the party, while the ground darkens, oozing night around your ankles, swallowing for ever that dropped contact lens, making you miss that low catch in the gully on the last ball of the last over Picture Quote #1

My relationship with my father had been on the proverbial fritz since the time I was fifteen and called the police to report him for child molesting. He had never molested me, but I wanted to have a party that weekend and needed him out of the house Picture Quote #1

The things that don’t happen to us that we’ll never know didn’t happen to us. The nonstories. The extra minute to find the briefcase that makes you late to the spot where a tractor trailer mauled another car instead of yours. The woman you didn’t meet because she couldn’t get a taxi to the party you had to leave early from. All of life is a series of nonstories if you look at it that way. We just don’t know what they are Picture Quote #1

You know what it was like? It was like thinking I was heading to a surprise party and instead it was a surprise pap smear Picture Quote #1
