Famous quotes containing the words general and/or election:

    “Every general increase of freedom is accompanied by some degeneracy, attributable to the same causes as the freedom.”
    —Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)

    “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)
