About this Quote

This quote by Dan Quayle talks to the variety of opinions and perspectives that exist in El Salvador, a democracy. It is not unexpected that there are numerous voices to be heard in a democracy, as individuals are free to express their opinions and beliefs. Nevertheless, regardless of the diversity of voices, Quayle keeps in mind that in his discussions with Salvadorans, he has heard a single voice. This suggests that despite the diversity of viewpoints, there is a shared sentiment among Salvadorans that unifies them. This could be a shared sense of pride in their nation, a shared commitment to democracy, or a shared desire for a much better future. Quayle's quote speaks to the power of unity and the strength of a shared vision.
