Some of my favourite quotes:
The real point is the expectations that people have of what democracy entails. And one group clearly stresses the will of the majority, which of course is correct. Therefore they think that once there's an election outcome that's that.
The other group does not necessarily deny this but maintains, and I think correctly too, that democracy entails a limited government: a majority does not give you the licence to put yourself above the law, whether it is election law or whether it is corruption law.
and
And you know much is made of me. I read stories saying I lose elections by a landslide: actually there was just 100,000 votes separating us and them, out of 30m
and
The latest case with Prachatai website was definitely mishandled and certainly went against my policy and apparently action was taken by people who were not supposed to be in charge of this issue.
Is it just me or does Abhisit sound a lot more Yellow when he talks to the foreign press than when he appears on local television?
