By and large the literature of a democracy will never exhibit the order, regularity, skill, and art characteristic of aristocratic literature; formal qualities will be neglected or actually despised.

Short works will be commoner than long books, wit than erudition, imagination than depth. There will be a rude and untutored vigor of thought with great variety and singular fecundity. Authors will strive to astonish more than to please, and to stir passions rather than to charm taste. (Quote by - Alexis de Tocqueville)

His actions simply articulate his dignity as a citizen, regardless of the cost. (Quote by - Vaclav Havel)
