Quote
- The party's strong position on abortion is just one example of how the GOP is out of touch with the majority of voters. In California the abortion issue has come to symbolize a view about the working woman versus the woman at home. The tone adopted by some statewide GOP candidates has lacked compassion and lacked understanding and has turned Republican woman voters off and into the Democratic Party. (State Republican Convention, 2000)

Famous quotes containing the word quote:
“We rarely quote nowadays to appeal to authority ... though we quote sometimes to display our sapience and erudition. Some authors we quote against. Some we quote not at all, offering them our scrupulous avoidance, and so make them part of our “white mythology.” Other authors we constantly invoke, chanting their names in cerebral rituals of propitiation or ancestor worship.”
—Ihab Hassan (b. 1925)
“Ah, yes, I wrote the “Purple Cow”—
I’m sorry, now, I wrote it!
But I can tell you, anyhow,
I’ll kill you if you quote it.”
—Gelett Burgess (1866–1951)
“I quote another man’s saying; unluckily, that other withdraws himself in the same way, and quotes me.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
