Liberal Democrat Party

Famous quotes containing the words liberal, democrat and/or party:

    Laws should be interpreted in a liberal sense so that their intention may be preserved.
    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)

    I am a democrat only on principle, not by instinct—nobody is that. Doubtless some people say they are, but this world is grievously given to lying.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    What is the disease which manifests itself in an inability to leave a party—any party at all—until it is all over and the lights are being put out?... I suppose that part of this mania for staying is due to a fear that, if I go, something good will happen and I’ll miss it. Somebody might do card tricks, or shoot somebody else.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
