Party Elders

Famous quotes containing the words party and/or elders:

    In inner-party politics, these methods lead, as we shall yet see, to this: the party organization substitutes itself for the party, the central committee substitutes itself for the organization, and, finally, a “dictator” substitutes himself for the central committee.
    Leon Trotsky (1879–1940)

    As a Christian, as an individual, as a doctor, I am absolutely opposed to the death penalty.
