Famous quotes containing the words election and/or results:

    “What a glorious time they must have in that wilderness, far from mankind and election day!”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “How can you tell if you discipline effectively? Ask yourself if your disciplinary methods generally produce lasting results in a manner you find acceptable. Whether your philosophy is democratic or autocratic, whatever techniques you use—reasoning, a “star” chart, time-outs, or spanking—if it doesn’t work, it’s not effective.”
    —Stanley Turecki (20th century)
