Famous quotes containing the words electoral and/or college:
“Power is action; the electoral principle is discussion. No political action is possible when discussion is permanently established.”

The young enthusiast quilts his ease for fame;
Through all his veins the fever of renown
Burns from the strong contagion of the gown;”
