7 Book Quotes that Would Make Great Campaign Slogans
It’s election season! Yes, still. And now that the field of candidates has narrowed, perhaps you’re mourning the loss of slogans like “Jeb!”—that exclamation point was everything. But we’ve still got some gems in the running—like the ominous “A Political Revolution is Coming” (Bernie Sanders), the demanding “Make America Great Again!” (Donald Trump), the don’t-you-know-who-I-am? “Hillary for America” (Hillary Clinton), and the I-want-to-hold-your-hand “Be Libertarian with Me” (Gary Johnson).
But what if all the candidates decided to pull book quotes for their slogans instead? It would definitely be a lot more fun, and potentially insightful into what makes these people tick—and what books are sitting on their nightstands. Check out some of our picks for book quotes that would make incredible campaign slogans.
