Famous quotes containing the words political, parties and/or elections:
“[When asked: Will not woman suffrage make the black woman the political equal of the white woman and does not political equality mean social equality?:] If it does then men by keeping both white and black women disfranchised have already established social equality!”
—Anna Howard Shaw (18471919)
“Things must be done by parties, not by persons using parties as tools.”
—Benjamin Disraeli (18041881)
“In my public statements I have earnestly urged that there rested upon government many responsibilities which affect the moral and spiritual welfare of our people. The participation of women in elections has produced a keener realization of the importance of these questions and has contributed to higher national ideals. Moreover, it is through them that our national ideals are ingrained in our children.”
—Herbert Hoover (18741964)
