Democracy Demonstration Demanding

Famous quotes containing the words democracy and/or demanding:

    When people generally are aware of a problem, it can be said to have entered the public consciousness. When people get on their hind legs and holler, the problem has not only entered the public consciousness—it has also become a part of the public conscience. At that point, things in our democracy begin to hum.
    Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)

    The job for us is to develop a way to teach children without demanding instant perfection or without giving in to every whim.
    Jeannette W. Galambos (20th century)
