Charles Edison Zitate

Bosses are no more inevitable in state and local governments than dictators are in national governments. They will arise and prosper, nevertheless, if true believers of democracy - citizens devoted to the democratic ideals - do not constantly oppose them.

Charles Edison

Deutsche Übersetzung

Chefs sind in den Regierungen von Staaten und Gemeinden nicht unvermeidlicher als Diktatoren in nationalen Regierungen. Sie werden aufstehen und gedeihen, wenn jedoch wahre Anhänger der Demokratie - Bürger, die sich den demokratischen Idealen verschrieben haben - nicht ständig dagegen sind.

Ted Cruz

I think there are more politicians in favor of electric cars than against. There are still some that are against, and I think the reasoning for that varies depending on the person, but in some cases, they just don't believe in climate change - they think oil will last forever.

Elon Musk

Terror is only justice: prompt, severe and inflexible; it is then an emanation of virtue; it is less a distinct principle than a natural consequence of the general principle of democracy, applied to the most pressing wants of the country.

Maximilien Robespierre

For the year after I left government service, I worked as a consultant to the Republican National Committee because the lawyers advised that was the proper way for me to comply with ethics regulations and continue to advise the President.
