Famous quotes containing the words democratic and/or party:
“One reason—perhaps the chief—of the virility of the Roosevelts is [their] very democratic spirit. They have never felt that because they were born in a good position they could put their hands in their pockets and succeed. They have felt, rather, that being born in a good position, there is no excuse for them if they did not do their duty by the community.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
“A baby changes your dinner party conversation from politics to poops.”
—Maurice Johnstone (20th century)
