Famous quotes containing the words electoral and/or record:

    “Power is action; the electoral principle is discussion. No political action is possible when discussion is permanently established.”
    —Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)

    “All photographs are there to remind us of what we forget. In this—as in other ways—they are the opposite of paintings. Paintings record what the painter remembers. Because each one of us forgets different things, a photo more than a painting may change its meaning according to who is looking at it.”
    —John Berger (b. 1926)
