Quotes for Democrats
Democrats are one of the two major political associations in the United States--the other being Republicans. The Democratic Party has changed over the years, but the one thing that remains true is the belief that people have the say in politics ('demo' from 'demos' meaning 'common people' in Greek).
These quotes are for Democrats and the political party.
The greatest thing the Democrats have ever done for me was to defeat me for the governor of Tennessee.
Roy Acuff
I am not a member of any organized party -- I am a Democrat.
Will Rogers
The Democrats are the party that says government will make you smarter, taller, richer, and remove the crabgrass on your lawn. The Republicans are the party that says government doesn't work and then get elected and prove it.
P.J. O'Rourke
I have been thinking that I would make a proposition to my Republican friends ... that if they will stop telling lies about the Democrats, we will stop telling the truth about them.
Adlan Stevenson
The original sin of Republicans is greed. Everyone understands greed. Everybody wants to get theirs. The original sin of Democrats is pity. Greed is more attractive, and a better motivator, than pity.
John Scalzi
Liberalism is dead, so dead that Democrats have all become moderate Republicans, and the heavy hand of Big Government is now limp and damp and trembly.
Garrison Keillor, 1996
So is there a difference between Democrats and Republicans? Sure. The Democrats say one thing ("Save the planet!") and then do another--quietly holding hands behind the scenes with the bastards who make this world a dirtier, meaner place. The Republicans just come right out and give the bastards a corner office in the West Wing. That's the difference.
Michael Moore
Republicans are very good at describing things in black and white; Democrats are very good at describing the 11 shades of gray.
Joseph C. Wilson
As a young boy, I didn't know a Republican from a Democrat, only in one way: If some man or bunch of men rode up to the ranch to sit or stay all night, and my Father set me to watching 'em all the time they was there -- what they did and what they carried off -- I learned they were Republicans.
Will Rogers
Republicans sleep in twin beds—some even in separate rooms. That is why there are more Democrats.
Will Stanton
