Single Member Constituency

Famous quotes containing the words single, member and/or constituency:

    It is handsomer to remain in the establishment better than the establishment, and conduct that in the best manner, than to make a sally against evil by some single improvement, without supporting it by a total regeneration.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    If one member suffers, all suffer together with it; if one member is honored, all rejoice together with it.
    Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 12:26.

    Social Security is a government program with a constituency made up of the old, the near old and those who hope or fear to grow old. After 215 years of trying, we have finally discovered a special interest that includes 100 percent of the population. Now we can vote ourselves rich.
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)
