Conservatives Through the Ages

A conservative is a man who believes 
that nothing should be done 
for the first time.

Alfred E. Wiggam

The modern conservative is engaged in one
of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy;
that is, the search for a superior moral
justification for selfishness.

John Kenneth Galbraith

I do not know which makes
a man more conservative --
to know nothing but the present,
or nothing but the past.

John Maynard Keynes

Liberalism is trust of the people tempered
by prudence. 
Conservatism is distrust of the people
tempered by fear. 

William E. Gladstone

A Conservative Government
is an organized hypocrisy.

Benjamin Disraeli

All reactionaries are paper tigers.

Mao Zedong
