Famous quotes containing the words latest and/or elections:

    “A pleasant comedy, which paints the manners of the age, and exposes a faithful picture of nature, is a durable work, and is transmitted to the latest posterity. But a system, whether physical or metaphysical, commonly owes its success to its novelty; and is no sooner canvassed with impartiality than its weakness is discovered.”
    —David Hume (1711–1776)

    “Apparently, a democracy is a place where numerous elections are held at great cost without issues and with interchangeable candidates.”
    —Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
