Quote by W. C. Fields

I never vote for anyone. I always vote against.

I never vote for anyone. I always vote against.

Summary

This quote suggests that the person is driven by a motive to resist or oppose certain candidates or political parties, rather than actively supporting a particular candidate. Instead of endorsing someone they truly believe in, they choose to vote against those who they find more undesirable or unsuitable. It implies a lack of faith or trust in the political system, as voting becomes a means of eradicating unfavorable options rather than actively promoting positive change through supporting candidates whose values align with their own.

The complaint about modern steel furniture, modern glass houses, modern red bars and modern streamlined trains and cars is that all these objets modernize, while adequate and amusing in themselves, tend to make the people who use them look dated. It is an honest criticism. The human race has done nothing much about changing its own appearance to conform to the form and texture of its appurtenances.

I can not wish you success in your effort to reject the treaty because while it may win the fight it may destroy our cause. My plan cannot fail if the people are with us and we ought not to succeed unless we do have the people with us.
