Jamaican General Election

Famous quotes containing the words jamaican, general and/or election:

    Then comes my fit again. I had else been perfect,
    Whole as the marble, founded as the rock,
    As broad and general as the casing air.
    But now I am cabined, cribbed, confined, bound in
    To saucy doubts and fears.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Democracy substitutes election by the incompetent many for appointment by the corrupt few.
