Arundhati Roy, T.S. Eliot, and Emma Goldman (on elections)

“An election is coming. Universal peace is declared and the foxes have a sincere interest in prolonging the lives of the poultry.”
—Eliot



“I think it is dangerous to confuse the idea of democracy with elections. Just because you have elections doesn’t mean you’re a democratic country.”
—Roy



“If voting could change things, it would be illegal.”
—Goldman
