Famous quotes containing the words discovered and/or ballots:

“She discovered with great delight that one does not love one’s children just because they are one’s children but because of the friendship formed while raising them.”
—Gabriel García Márquez (b. 1928)

“When people put their ballots in the boxes, they are, by that act, inoculated against the feeling that the government is not theirs. They then accept, in some measure, that its errors are their errors, its aberrations their aberrations, that any revolt will be against them. It’s a remarkably shrewed and rather conservative arrangement when one thinks of it.”
—John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
