Those who have the immense dishonesty to fight with a ballot box in one hand and a rifle in the other have no place in democratic politics.

In politics nothing is contemptible.

A democratic country has zero tolerance for all illegal monitoring operations.

In politics, nothing is contemptible.

You don't spread democracy through the barrel of a gun.

We hear — you’ve heard it — more and more talk about violence as an acceptable political tool in this country. It’s not. It can never be an acceptable tool. So I want to say this plain and simple: There is no place for political violence in America. Period. None. Ever.

As you know too well democracy and building of civil society cannot be achieved by means of missiles and aircraft, or by backing armed member of AlQuaeda in Benghazi.

In a free society, a government has no business using the power of the law or the taxpayer's money to propagandize for some views and to prevent the transmission of others.

A country without an armed force is not a country.

Nobody outside of a baby carriage or a judge's chamber believes in an unprejudiced point of view.

Those who have no understanding of the political world around them have no right to criticise or complain.

Democracies don’t murder their citizens.

There is no gambling like politics.

Where every man has a vote, brutal laws are impossible.
