“Democracy was never anything but a contingent hodge podge of basis thoughts haphazardly slapped together in the minds of starry-eyed philosophers who infinitely outweighed the value of Mob Man's voice to that of The Genius.”

Charles Mackay
“We find that whole communities suddenly fix their minds upon one object, and go mad in its pursuit; that millions of people become simultaneously impressed with one delusion, and run after it, till their attention is caught by some new folly more captivating than the first. We see one nation suddenly seized, from its highest to its lowest members, with a fierce desire of military glory; another as suddenly becoming crazed upon a religious scruple, and neither of them recovering its senses until it has shed rivers of blood and sowed a harvest of groans and tears, to be reaped by its posterity.”
Charles MacKay
