Wasted Votes

Famous quotes containing the words wasted and/or votes:

    You haven’t wasted all your time in Rome, since you know how to defend yourself so gallantly: you have wit, even if you haven’t courage.
    Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)

    The war shook down the Tsardom, an unspeakable abomination, and made an end of the new German Empire and the old Apostolic Austrian one. It ... gave votes and seats in Parliament to women.... But if society can be reformed only by the accidental results of horrible catastrophes ... what hope is there for mankind in them? The war was a horror and everybody is the worse for it.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
