Democracy 103 The essence of democracy is not that everyone makes and administers laws but that lawgivers and rulers should be dependent on the people's will in such a way that they may be peaceably changed if conflict occurs. Ludwig von Mises In the long run the ideas of the majority, however detrimental they may be, will carry on. The future of mankind depends on the ability of the elite to influence public opinion in the right direction. Ludwig von Mises As scarce as truth is, the supply has always been in excess of the demand. Josh Billings It is wrong to ask who will rule. The ability to vote a bad government out of office is enough. That is democracy. Karl Popper Human beings are perhaps never more frightening than when they are convinced beyond doubt that they are right. Laurens van der Post It is bad to be oppressed by a minority, but it is worse to be oppressed by a majority. Lord Acton An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. Mahatma Gandhi The spirit of democracy cannot be superimposed from the outside. It must come from within. Mahatma Gandhi It is as hard for the good to suspect evil, as it is for the bad to suspect good. Marcus Tullius Cicero
