Jean-Pierre Raffarin Quotes on Democracy (4 Quotes)

I am a believer, but I affirm that in public buildings the law of the Republic overrides religious rules.

But the Republic has its rules and it must not tolerate any abuse of them.

It's important to show that, while authorizing the demonstrations and promoting diversity of opinion, the Republic can't allow itself to be undermined from within.

The Republic is open and tolerant but also knows how and when to be firm and make its values respected.
