About This Quote

This quote is about the flaw in thinking that democracy leads to chaos. Among other things, it explains why democracies are not necessarily better than any other form of government. Democracy does not mean spreading terror. It only means spreading the right to be heard and giving people an opportunity to express their views. Giving people the vote does not mean they will go on a killing spree.
