"Vote: the instrument and symbol of a freeman's power to make a fool of himself
and a wreck of his country." Ambrose Bierce

Always thought that Ambrose Bierce was arrogant and elitist; that quote
pretty much proves it. Translated: "Y'all ought to let the educated smart
folks like me run things and go back to your plows and tools, you
uneducated, stupid serfs!"
