"If liberty and equality, as is thought by some, are chiefly to be found in democracy, they will be best attained when all persons alike share in government to the utmost"

- Aristotle

About this Quote

Aristotle's quote recommends that democracy is the very best form of government for attaining liberty and equality. He thinks that the best way to accomplish these goals is for all people to have an equivalent share in the federal government. This implies that everyone should have an equal say in the decisions that are made which nobody needs to be omitted from the process. This would ensure that everyone has an equal opportunity to voice their viewpoint which their views are thought about. This would also make sure that the federal government is more representative of individuals and that it is more liable to them. Eventually, Aristotle thinks that democracy is the very best method to ensure that liberty and equality are achieved.
