"Change represents the real spirit of democracy and the real America."
"Our nations (India and USA) may have been shaped by differing histories, cultures, and faiths. Yet, our belief in democracy for our nations and liberty for our countrymen is common. The idea that all citizens are created equal is a central pillar of the American constitution. Our founding fathers too shared the same belief and sought individual liberty for every citizen of India."
"Democracy can exist only in the countries where people are brave! Coward nations always live under the authoritarian regimes!"
"Mr. Speaker, democracy works best when the American electorate is engaged and informed."

When he is merely one of millions, the individual elector feels himself to be impotent, a negligible quantity. The candidates he has voted into office are far away, at the top of the pyramid of power. Theoretically they are the servants of the people; but in fact it is the servants who give orders and the people, far off at the base of the great pyramid, who must obey."
"You've got the brain-washed, that's the Democrats, and the brain-dead, that's the Republicans!"
"A marvel that has nothing to offer, democracy is at once a nation's paradise and its tomb."
