Famous quotes containing the words election and/or history:

    “In every election in American history both parties have their clichés. The party that has the clichés that ring true wins.”
    —Newt Gingrich (b. 1943)

    “You that would judge me do not judge alone
    This book or that, come to this hallowed place
    Where my friends’ portraits hang and look thereon;
    Ireland’s history in their lineaments trace;
    Think where man’s glory most begins and ends
    And say my glory was I had such friends.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
