Famous quotes containing the words political, parties and/or elections:
“It has been years since I have seen anyone who could even look as if he were in love. No ones face lights up any more except for political conversation.”

What she wants or why she wanders to that undiscovered land,
For the parties there are not at all the sort of thing she planned,
In the land where the dead dreams go.”
—Alfred Noyes (18801958)
“Apparently, a democracy is a place where numerous elections are held at great cost without issues and with interchangeable candidates.”
