Enkele uitspraken van Winston Churchill:"The best argument against democracy is a five-minute talk with the average voter."
"Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all those other forms that have been tried from time to time."

toespraak in the House of Commons op 11 nov. 1947
"If you're not a liberal when you're 25, you have no heart. If you're not a conservative by the time you're 35, you have no brain."

Ik kwam ze tegen op internet terwijl ik bezig was met mijn paper te schrijven over een geschriftje wat handelt over democratie. De schrijver/spreker van de Athenaion Politeia is een uitgesproken tegenstander van deze staatsvorm. In dat licht leek het me leuk de eerste twee citaten van Churchill voorin te vermelden.
