Famous quotes containing the words general and/or elections:
“Why not draft executive and management brains to prepare and produce the equipment the $21-a-month draftee must use and forget this dollar-a-year tommyrot? Would we send an army into the field under a dollar-a-year General who had to be home Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays?”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
“Apparently, a democracy is a place where numerous elections are held at great cost without issues and with interchangeable candidates.”
