Famous quotes containing the words political, parties and/or elections:

    “A political place with no power, only influence, is not to my taste.”
    —Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)

    “Friendship takes place between those who have an affinity for one another, and is a perfectly natural and inevitable result. No professions nor advances will avail.... It is a drama in which the parties have no part to act.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “In my public statements I have earnestly urged that there rested upon government many responsibilities which affect the moral and spiritual welfare of our people. The participation of women in elections has produced a keener realization of the importance of these questions and has contributed to higher national ideals. Moreover, it is through them that our national ideals are ingrained in our children.”
    —Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)
