Democracy is the government ordspråk

I know that the Iranian people are looking with great excitement to see what happens in Iraq because the Iranian people love democracy, ... And they certainly would love to have a chance to have a democracy that wasn't run by a theocracy. And I think that they would like to have a government of, by, and for their people.

I believe that people have a right to decide their own destiny; people own themselves. I also believe that, in a democracy, government exists because (and only as long as) individual citizens give it a "temporary license to exist" - in exchange for a promise that it will behave itself. In a democracy you own the government - it doesn't own you. Along with this comes a responsibility to ensure that individual actions, in the pursuit of a personal destiny, do not threaten the well-being of others while the "pursuit" is in progress.

Mr. Aristide has resigned his office and has left the country. And now the Haitian people are involved with grasping democracy and moving forward on an interim government. And that's where the focus should be right now. And any comments that would stir up more division are not helpful, as the Haitian people move toward a greater democracy.

We do it mainly to stop a government that betrays people, that steals from its people under the guise of democracy.

Abhisit Vejjajiva

After all, this is the Palestinian people's choice and this is democracy. The U.S. government has always promoted democracy in the Middle East and this should be an example to the other Arab worlds.

A great thing about democracy is that it holds leaders to account. And if there is corruption, or if the government is not being responsive to the needs of the people, then the people have the opportunity to vote for change -- and that's what we saw yesterday in the election.

Scott McClellan

There is what I call the American idea. . . . This idea demands, as the proximate organization thereof, a democracy,--that is, a government of all the people, by all the people, for all the people. For shortness' sake I will call it the idea of Freedom.

Theodore Parker

Demokrati är folkets stat, av folket, till folket.

Democracy is the government of the people, by the people, for the people

You know, I wish the world well. I want Iraq to have democracy and the Haitians to have democracy. I want the people of Afghanistan to thrive. Lord knows, we spend enough money there to help them. What about people at home? Isn't that our first responsibility?

Barbara Boxer (1940-)

Let me be frank, fighting the current Turkish government is an insult to the Kurdish people. This is a terrorist act. This is against the process of democracy in Turkey. This is only in the interest of the enemies of the Kurdish people…

Democracy doesn't recognize east or west; democracy is simply people's will. Therefore, I do not acknowledge that there are various models of democracy; there is just democracy itself.

People see something on TV they don't like, and some activists yell from the rooftops calling for more government intervention, but that's not what people want. The vast majority of the people don't want the government making their programming decisions.

We believe strongly in the faith-based thing that President Bush is trying to put to us. People helping people. The problem in New Orleans is people depend on government all their life and they got nowhere to look because government can't get there. God sent us.

Of course the debate and the bitterness [of it] is disturbing. But, after all, we are a democracy and that is what democracy is about. People will have differences of opinion, ... Certainly, soldiers are concerned about whether or not they enjoy the support of not only their elected representatives but the people. And they know that they have their support.

Morality is the biggest misconception. People also think we're the big spenders and for big government. We're the party for the people and for helping people, and we're for government that works.
