Democracy Quote by Anonymous
““NM: My Lord, it is not a question of form, it is a question of democracy. If democracy would be best expressed by a one-party system then I would examine the proposition very carefully. But if a democracy could best be expressed by a multiparty system, then I would examine that carefully. In this country, for example, we have a multiparty system at present, but so far as the non-Europeans are concerned, this is the most vicious despotism that you could think of.””
