We have accepted the principle of democracy and we are committed to respect the popular verdict and the result of that national consultation.
Mahmoud Abbas, Palestinian Statesman (1935-  )
My boyhood life in New York City has impressed me with the popular ignorance and also with the great need of something better than local lore and weather proverbs.
Cleveland Abbe, American Scientist (1838-1916)
The radical novelty of modern science lies precisely in the rejection of the belief, which is at the heart of all popular religion, that the forces which move the stars and atoms are contingent upon the preferences of the human heart.
Richard Adams, English Clergyman
It is a rare mind indeed that can render the hitherto non-existent blindingly obvious. The cry 'I could have thought of that' is a very popular and misleading one, for the fact is that they didn't, and a very significant and revealing fact it is too.
Douglas Adams, English Writer (1952-2001)
Sinn Fein has demonstrated the ability to play a leadership role as part of a popular movement towards peace, equality and justice.

George Ade, American Playwright (1866-1944)
I remember back when I was a kid there was a comic strip called Plastic Man. His body was elastic and he could make his extremities as long as he wanted. As a youngster I didn't fully appreciate. But I'm now thinking Plastic Man was probably pretty popular with the ladies.

Bill Alexander, American Politician (1934-  )
Well, developers do want to touch a lot of customers. We have to make our platform very popular in order for them to do that. If we make their jobs easier, then they'll be more likely to stay on the Windows platform.
Jim Allchin, American Businessman
An actor's popularity is fleeting. His success has the life expectancy of a small boy who is about to look into a gas tank with a lighted match.
Fred Allen, American Comedian (1894-1956)
Because the show is popular, people do recognize us on the streets.
Ted Allen, Entertainer (1965-  )
We had an erector set, and I was an avid fan of Popular Mechanics and Popular Science magazines.
James Van Allen, American Physicist (1914-2006)

Luther Allison, American Musician (1939-1997)
In a way, the popularity of Corona came too fast for its own good, initially. We took a few steps back.
Carlos Alvarez, -
Being an actress is similar to trying to fit in with the popular kids in high school. You're expected to drive the right car, wear the right clothes and say the right things.
Lauren Ambrose, American Actress (1978-  )
My popularity plunged three years ago and I didn't try to court publicity.
Namie Amuro, Japanese Musician (1977-  )
For the most part, I don't care about what everyone else is doing, or what is popular.

Freedom of expression - in particular, freedom of the press - guarantees popular participation in the decisions and actions of government, and popular participation is the essence of our democracy.
