&ldquo\;The English people believes itself to be free\;
it is gravely mistaken\; it is free only during election of members of
parliament\; as soon as the members are elected\, the people is enslaved
\; it is nothing. In the brief moment of its freedom\, the English peopl
e makes such a use of that freedom that it deserves to lose it.&rdquo\;<

~
Jean-Jacques Rousseau (French philosopher and writer whose novels in
spired the leaders of the French Revolution\, 1712-1778)
"Rea
l change comes about not because we vote for it\, but because we fight f
or it\, shout for it\, work for it. Placing hopes and fears on who holds
power\, or who will gain power through voting\, is wasting time which m
ight be spent in creating alternatives\, both for ourselves and for our
communities."
~ Chumbawamba\, 1987
