Summary
This quote suggests that democracy cannot function or survive without a strong foundation of moral values and principles. In a democratic system, decisions and actions are meant to reflect the will and interests of the people. However, for democracy to be effective, there must be a collective understanding of right and wrong, fairness, and ethical behavior. Without morality, democracy could be manipulated, corrupted, and lead to tyranny or chaos. Moral values provide the necessary guidance and standards for maintaining accountability, justice, and the overall well-being of society within the democratic framework.
