Famous quotes containing the words senate and/or election:

    “What times! What manners! The Senate knows these things, the consul sees them, and yet this man lives.”
    —Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)

    “The election makes me think of a story of a man who was dying. He had only two minutes to live, so he sent for a clergyman and asked him, “Where is the best place to go to?” He was undecided about it. So the minister told him that each place had its advantages—heaven for climate, and hell for society.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
