Fair Election

Famous quotes containing the words fair and/or election:

    All earthly things is but vanity:
    Beauty, Strength, and Discretion do man forsake,
    Foolish friends and kinsmen, that fair spake—
    All fleeth save Good Deeds, and that am I.
    Unknown. Everyman (l. 870–873)

    Do you know I believe that [William Jennings] Bryan will force his nomination on the Democrats again. I believe he will either do this by advocating Prohibition, or else he will run on a Prohibition platform independent of the Democrats. But you will see that the year before the election he will organize a mammoth lecture tour and will make Prohibition the leading note of every address.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
