The Right to Vote

I still haven't found anything more suitable, so here it is again.

"It is a curious thing, Harry, but perhaps those who are best suited to power are those who have never sought it. Those who, like you, have leadership thrust upon them, and take up the mantle because they must, and find to their own surprise that they wear it well."
--Albus Dumbledore, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Perhaps you can ponder this quote over as you mull over the idea of the limits (or lack thereof) of human greed. Like they've never seen a burger before. Then there's old Chinese women who lived in mountain who've never seen a car before. Or little African kids who've never seen a digital camera (or even themselves) before.

But well, that's life for you. And democracy.
