Of course democracy is good, but it is a process, not a prescription.

Anybody who asks for democracy to be introduced should respect the results of democracy.

I always assume that democracy is the only good form of government, quite frankly, and democracy is always to be preferred.

The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.

Democracy actually requires that the whole public be able to see common problems and address them and step outside of their own sort of narrow self-interest to do so.

I've always tried to explain democracy is not perfect. But it gives you a chance to shape your own destiny.

It's not up to one individual to decide, 'I'm going to dictate the outcome of what's going to happen legislatively.' That is not a democracy; it's an atrocity.

So long as we have enough people in this country willing to fight for their rights, we'll be called a democracy.

Democracy is just a reflection of our morals and the things that we believe.

Let the people decide whom to vote for, who has more authority. And only people, only our citizens, are able to place the final emphasis, voting for this or that person or political force, or rejecting it. That's democracy.
