Every society gets the kind of criminal it deserves. What is equally true is that every community gets the kind of law enforcement it insists on.

Robert Kennedy

At every election, my vote goes to the candidate less likely to declare war. You're dropping hugely expensive pieces of exploding metal on a population. America deserves the president it gets, whether the country votes for them or allows their vote to be stolen, and the least we can do is to elect someone who won't do that to other people.

Ian MacKaye

A government or a party gets the people it deserves and sooner or later a people gets the government it deserves.

Frantz Fanon

Every movie gets exactly what it deserves.

Farhan Akhtar

Every society gets the kind of criminal it deserves.

Robert Kennedy

I suppose every decade gets the music it deserves.

Robert Charles Wilson

Every generation gets the Tiny Tim it deserves.

Gore Vidal

If every nation gets the government it deserves, every generation writes the history which corresponds with its view of the world.

C. S. Lewis

I will not call myself a pacifist for the very simple reason that if something like a [Francisco] Franco should arise in Spain again, or, for that matter, in America, and tried to take away whatever dwindling civil liberties and human rights we retain, I would resist them with a club if I had to. But my admiration for pacifism as an outlook and a sensibility is enormous. I just find that it gets me into contradictions, as it often gets many pacifists into contradictory positions and strategies.

Murray Bookchin

What gets measured gets done, what gets measured and fed back gets done well, what gets rewarded gets repeated

John E. Jones III

It could be argued that every age gets the comfort savagery writer it deserves.

Will Self

What do we do to just rebuild and focus on creating a big and inclusive tent, where we're focusing on making sure every child gets that fair shot, that every woman gets to compete on a level playing field, that we are true to the core values of our country, and we're making sure that we honor those values?

Valerie Jarrett

When the sun sets, life gets darker in the country; when a bad leader sinks, life gets brighter in the country!

Mehmet Murat Ildan

There are big surfing communities in every country with an ocean coast that I know in Central and South America. Same with Mexico, Bali, and nearly every island nation that gets waves in the Pacific and Indian Oceans. But that's a relatively recent development in most places.

William Finnegan

Toronto deserves Rob Ford; they put him in office. Toronto deserves everything it gets.
