Democratic

Famous quotes containing the word democratic:

    There’s no such thing as socialism pure
    Except as an abstraction of the mind.
    There’s only democratic socialism,
    Monarchic socialism, oligarchic
    The last being what they seem to have in Russia.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    As if paralyzed by the national fear of ideas, the democratic distrust of whatever strikes beneath the prevailing platitudes, it evades all resolute and honest dealing with what, after all, must be every healthy literature’s elementary materials.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    No one can doubt the purpose for which the Nation now seeks to use the Democratic Party. It seeks to use it to interpret a change in its own plans and point of view.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
