Quote preview background for Osho
In the old days prime ministers were not chosen by the vote of the people, because how can you choose by the vote of the people? How can people choose their leaders? They would like to, but they are not capable. Democracy is just a dream, it has not happened anywhere _ it cannot happen. And wherever it happens it creates trouble; the medicine proves more dangerous than the disease itself.
