Booker T. Washington on voting

I have learnt that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome while trying to succeed.

I will permit no man to narrow and degrade my soul by making me hate him.

The world cares very little about what a man or woman knows; it is what a man or woman is able to do that counts.

The people who cast the votes don’t decide an election, the people who count the votes do.

Joseph Stalin1878–1953

Vote early and vote often.

Al Capone1899–1947

The great thing about democracy is that it gives every voter a chance to do something stupid.
