    “Ankh-Morpork had dallied with many forms of government and had ended up with that form of democracy known as one man, one vote. The Patrician was the Man; he had the vote.”

    Terry Pratchett, Mort

    Or from Unseen Academicals:

    “Everyone is entitled to a vote unless disqualified by reason of not being the Patrician”

      I’m literally reading Unseen Academicals right now and that line sure did stike a chord.
