Famous quotes containing the words democratic and/or republic:
“All the isms are wasms—except one, the most powerful ism of this century, indeed, of the entire democratic age, which is nationalism.”
—John Lukacs (b. 1924)
“It was the most ungrateful and unjust act ever perpetrated by a republic upon a class of citizens who had worked and sacrificed and suffered as did the women of this nation in the struggle of the Civil War only to be rewarded at its close by such unspeakable degradation as to be reduced to the plane of subjects to enfranchised slaves.”
—Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)
