I'm a very happy, content member of David Cameron's team. I fought very hard to get my friend elected as leader of the Conservative party, then elected as the prime minister of this country, and I'm very happy being part of that team that is bringing change to this country. ~ George Osborne
Conservative Party quotes by George Osborne
When the Carlton Club, A Conservative Party bastion in London, was badly damaged by bombs and Churchill remarked that he was surprised that no one had been killed, a Labor Party official replied, "The devil looks after his own. ~ Philip Seib
Conservative Party quotes by Philip Seib
We should be in the business of protecting cherished institutions and our cultural heritage, otherwise what, I ask, is a Conservative party for? Indeed we are alienating people who have voted for us for all their lives, leaving them with no one to vote for. ~ Edward Leigh
Conservative Party quotes by Edward Leigh
The Conservative party is at its strongest when it's not the party that says there is no role for government and the state should just get out of the way. That is not a strand of Conservative thinking that, by itself, is enough. ~ George Osborne
Conservative Party quotes by George Osborne
The Conservative party found him an embarrassment because he was apt to criticize the party leader in public, the Liberals naturally wanted to defeat him, and the newspapers were out to get him. It was a dreadful campaign on his part, for he lost his head, bullied his electors when he should have wooed them, and got into a wrangle with a large newspaper, which he threatened to sue for libel. He was defeated on election day so decisively that it was obviously a personal rather than a political rejection. ~ Robertson Davies
Conservative Party quotes by Robertson Davies
56,000 companies have already benefited from the schemes that we have brought in. If we have taken the advice of the Conservative Party, no money would have been used. As Barack Obama said only yesterday, doing nothing is not an option. ~ Gordon Brown
Conservative Party quotes by Gordon Brown
The whole of the situation of the Conservative Party today springs from that night when they dismissed the best prime minister the country had had since Churchill. ~ Denis Thatcher
Conservative Party quotes by Denis Thatcher
Let's make it clear: the Conservative Party has no plans for new NHS charges. ~ Margaret Thatcher
Conservative Party quotes by Margaret Thatcher
Keep in mind that Eric Alterman is media critic for The Nation-a hysterically left-wing magazine dedicated to the proposition that corporate America, U.S. foreign policy and the Republican Party are criminal, racist or both. The simple reality is that, for him, the Democratic Party is far too conservative. ~ Jonah Goldberg
Conservative Party quotes by Jonah Goldberg
On the question of taking credit for what goes right and blame for what goes wrong - having led the Conservative party for four years, I have never heard of this notion before. ~ William Hague
Conservative Party quotes by William Hague
For the first time perhaps since Margaret Thatcher, we will have at the head of the Conservative Party someone who is genuinely an equal match for Tony Blair. ~ Tim Yeo
Conservative Party quotes by Tim Yeo
Yet there will always be a problem about getting rid of the hyphen: if it's not extra-marital sex (with a hyphen), it is perhaps extra marital sex, which is quite a different bunch of coconuts. Phrases abound that cry out for hyphens. Those much-invoked examples of the little used car, the superfluous hair remover, the pickled herring merchant, the slow moving traffic and the two hundred odd members of the Conservative Party would all be lost without it. ~ Lynne Truss
Conservative Party quotes by Lynne Truss
John Boehner was and is an unprincipled ward-heeler who simply couldn't weather the transition of the Republican Party from a corporatist party with a sizable conservative base to a purely conservative party. ~ Alex Pareene
Conservative Party quotes by Alex Pareene
[Is the Conservative Party still the Nasty Party?] I said it was perceived as the Nasty Party. And is it? I don't think that it's a phrase that people today would apply to the Party. I think that the perception of the Party has changed. ~ Theresa May
Conservative Party quotes by Theresa May
It's weird: The leader of the Conservative Party in England is two years younger than me, and I still don't really feel like a responsible adult. ~ Jarvis Cocker
Conservative Party quotes by Jarvis Cocker
God was a full-fledged member of the Conservative Party. ~ Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Conservative Party quotes by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Let's face it: The Republican Party is no longer a broad-based conservative party in the historically accepted sense. It is an oligarchy with a well-developed public relations strategy designed to soothe and anesthetize its followers with appeals to tradition, security, and family even as it pursues a radical agenda that would transform the country into a Dickensian corporatocracy at home and a belligerent military empire abroad. ~ Mike Lofgren
Conservative Party quotes by Mike Lofgren
Listening to the shrill rhetoric of hard line Brexiteers - either extolling the virtues of a 'no deal' Brexit, or suggesting its inevitability is simply down to the intransigence of the EU - I am reminded of another great folly in British history: 'The Charge of the Light Brigade'. It is as if we are witnessing a modern day re-enactment of that foolhardy military manoeuvre in which a mix of poor communication, rash decisions and vainglorious personalities led to the needless massacre of countless cavalrymen. Messrs. Fox, Johnson and Rees-Mogg may relish the idea of charging headlong into battle against a well prepared and strongly defended position, immune to the ensuing casualties and collateral damage. It would be appreciated if they could kindly leave the rest of us out of their futile and reckless endeavours. ~ Alex Morritt
Conservative Party quotes by Alex Morritt
If there is a 'Leave' vote in England and across the U.K. as a whole, then we see the reins of power being seized by politicians who are on the right of the Conservative party. ~ Nicola Sturgeon
Conservative Party quotes by Nicola Sturgeon
The Liberal Democrat Party and the Conservative Party come at things very differently when it comes to Europe. When it comes to political reform, we have a much greater tradition in the Liberal Democrats of social justice and fairness than the Conservatives do. ~ Nick Clegg
Conservative Party quotes by Nick Clegg
On the other side, the conservative party, composed of the most moderate, able, and cultivated part of the population, is timid, and merely defensive of property. It vindicates no right, it aspires to no real good, it brands no crime, it proposes no generous policy, it does not build, nor write, nor cherish the arts, nor foster religion, nor establish schools, nor encourage science, nor emancipate the slave, nor befriend the poor, or the Indian, or the immigrant. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Conservative Party quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
The public will not forgive us if their wish to leave is subject to a bitter and a divisive Conservative Party leadership race between Remain and Leave camps. ~ Priti Patel
Conservative Party quotes by Priti Patel
In 1925, when Britain went back to the gold standard, that was supported by the Conservative Party, the Labour Party, the Bank of England, the civil service, the CBI, the TUC, the Times, the Economist; that consensus was very strong. ~ Ed Balls
Conservative Party quotes by Ed Balls
I was brought up and raised in Britain as a Labour man, and that quickly changed. And I find there are more working-class people in the Conservative Party than the Labour party. ~ John Lydon
Conservative Party quotes by John Lydon
The Conservative Party isn't electing a leader in opposition after losing a general election who can build up over five years and gain experience. We're electing somebody who's going to be our prime minister in two months' time, and that's why it's very important we have somebody with strong experience, who's good at working with the international community and can hit the ground running. ~ Chris Grayling
Conservative Party quotes by Chris Grayling
One would have thought that if there was one cause in the world which the Conservative party would have hastened to defend, it would be the cause of the British Empire in India ... Our fight is hard. It will also be long ... But win or lose, we must do our duty. If the British people are to lose their Indian Empire, they shall do so with their eyes open. ~ Winston Churchill
Conservative Party quotes by Winston Churchill
I am driven into grudging toleration of the Conservative party because it is the party of nonpolitics, of resistance to politics. I have seen how many of the evils of life - failure, loneliness, fear, boredom, inability to communicate - are ineradicable by political means, and that attempts so to eradicate them are disastrous. ~ Kingsley Amis
Conservative Party quotes by Kingsley Amis
There is a philosophy by which many people live their lives, and it is this: life is a shit sandwich, but the more bread you've got, the less shit you have to eat.

These people are often selfish brats as kids, and they don't get better with age: think of the shifty-eyed smarmy asshole from the sixth form who grow up to be a merchant banker, or an estate agent, or one of the Conservative Party funny-handshake mine's a Rolex brigade.

(This isn't to say that all estate agents, or merchant bankers, or conservatives are selfish, but that these are ways of life that provide opportunities of a certain disposition to enrich themselves at the expense of others. Bear with me.)

There is another philosophy by which people live their lives, and it goes thus: You will do as I say or I will hurt you.

. . . Let me draw you a Venn diagram with two circles on it, denoting sets of individuals. They overlap: the greedy ones and the authoritarian ones. Let's shade in the intersecting area in a different color and label it: dangerous. Greed isn't automatically dangerous on its won, and petty authoritarians aren't usually dangerous outside their immediate vicinity -- but when you combine the two, you get gangsters and dictators and hate-spewing preachers. ~ Charles Stross
Conservative Party quotes by Charles Stross
I'm not 'worked up' so much as 'fed up' with the rat faced whores in the Conservative Party who neglect to invite me to announcements in my riding. ~ Pat Martin
Conservative Party quotes by Pat Martin
There definitely comes a time where a fresh pair of eyes and fresh leadership would be good, and the Conservative Party has got some great people coming up - the Theresa Mays, and the George Osbornes, and the Boris Johnsons. ~ David Cameron
Conservative Party quotes by David Cameron
To be more specific, the evangelical, right-wing, oogedy-boogedy branch of the GOP is what ails the erstwhile conservative party and will continue to afflict and marginalize its constituents if reckoning doesn't soon cometh. ~ Kathleen Parker
Conservative Party quotes by Kathleen Parker
People are crying out for a Conservative Party that is decent, reasonable, common sense and in it for the long term of this country. ~ David Cameron
Conservative Party quotes by David Cameron
I can foresee no circumstance in which I would allow my name to be put forward for the leadership of the Conservative Party. ~ Michael Heseltine
Conservative Party quotes by Michael Heseltine
A conservative party that reshapes its self-presentation according to the suggestions of the liberal media, of course, may very well get what such lack of courage deserves. Having been told by their opponents for years that the key to Republican victory was a softening of the message and more smiles, Republicans have now apparently taken a big dose of this medicine. One might counsel more caution in accepting medicine from one's enemies. ~ Alan Keyes
Conservative Party quotes by Alan Keyes
If political correctness has achieved one thing, it's that it has made the Conservative party cloak their inherent racism behind more creative language ~ Stewart Lee
Conservative Party quotes by Stewart Lee
As Margaret Thatcher came up in the world, so the Conservative Party came down. ~ Julian Critchley
Conservative Party quotes by Julian Critchley
I want to lead the Progressive Conservative Party, a party that will promote true conservative values and principles. I can tell you right now, I am not the merger candidate. I am not interested in institutional marriages with other parties. ~ Peter MacKay
Conservative Party quotes by Peter MacKay
I wanted to weave a green thread through the Conservative party; that's my job, and I signed up imagining that I would be in a very small minority within my party, possibly even on my own, battling away on these issues. ~ Zac Goldsmith
Conservative Party quotes by Zac Goldsmith
The Conservative Party is not honouring the commitment to Lords reform and, as a result, part of our contract has now been broken. Clearly I cannot permit a situation where Conservative rebels can pick and choose the parts of the contract they like, while Liberal Democrat MPs are bound to the entire agreement. ~ Nick Clegg
Conservative Party quotes by Nick Clegg
The Conservative party absolutely must not allow itself to be shut out of parts of the north of England. ~ George Osborne
Conservative Party quotes by George Osborne
The political health of Britain has deteriorated very sharply. The Conservative Party must do something about it. I am the man to do it. ~ Kenneth Clarke
Conservative Party quotes by Kenneth Clarke
I think that the principle of the Conservative Party is jealousy of liberty and of the people , only qualified by fear ; but I think the principle of the Liberal Party is trust in the people, only qualified by prudence . ~ William E. Gladstone
Conservative Party quotes by William E. Gladstone
The only book Papa had ever read, apart from the Bible, was Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. He believed that the even greater British Empire would go the same way unless noblemen fought to preserve its institutions, especially the Royal Navy, the Church of England, and the Conservative Party. He was right, Fitz had no doubt. ~ Ken Follett
Conservative Party quotes by Ken Follett
I think a lot of people in the Conservative party came from other parties. There wouldn't be a Conservative party today if people hadn't come from other parties. ~ Tim Powers
Conservative Party quotes by Tim Powers
I'd rather take advice from my valet than from the Conservative Party Conference ~ Arthur Balfour
Conservative Party quotes by Arthur Balfour
I call the Conservative Party now to a crusade. Not only the Conservative Party. I appeal to all those men and women of good will who do not want a Marxist future for themselves or their children or their children's children. For this is not just a fight about national solvency. It is a fight about the very foundations of the social order. It is a crusade not merely to put a temporary block on socialism but to stop its onward march once and for all. ~ Margaret Thatcher
Conservative Party quotes by Margaret Thatcher
I became a Conservative in the late 1980s because I could see that the Conservative party had transformed Britain's economy and our standing in the world compared to Labour in the 1980s. ~ Andrew Lansley
Conservative Party quotes by Andrew Lansley
I am not a Tory moderniser for I believe marriage can only be between a man and a woman. I shall not surrender my principles. I believe this bill is wrong. The consultation process was a complete sham. It is opposed by the established church. It has caused deep and needless divisions within the Conservative Party. There is no mandate for it. There are huge potential consequences ... and the nation faces much more serious challenges which the government needs to address ~ Gerald Howarth
Conservative Party quotes by Gerald Howarth
It would be wrong for us to offer difference from the Conservative Party at the cost of credibility, but equally it would be wrong to offer credibility at the cost of being clear that there remain very fundamental differences. ~ Douglas Alexander
Conservative Party quotes by Douglas Alexander
I am delighted to have won so much support from my colleagues. The Conservative Party can come together - and under my leadership it will. ~ Theresa May
Conservative Party quotes by Theresa May
People were surprised in the 1990s when multinationals began to contribute heavily to New Labour, favoured even above the Conservative Party. But this move of Labour to New Labour was much more important to capitalism than simply having one party to support, for if you can have both big parties you have achieved the ultimate switch from a capitalist democracy to a totalitarian capitalist democracy, such as was accomplished in the USA many years previously. ~ Dave Mearns
Conservative Party quotes by Dave Mearns
Only our own strength, a strong conservative party, can prevent Red-Red-Green from taking power at the federal level in 2017. ~ Angela Merkel
Conservative Party quotes by Angela Merkel
I myself share with the Conservative Party a profound dislike for such fandangles as proportional representation. ~ Hugh Dalton
Conservative Party quotes by Hugh Dalton
I think in any organisation it's right to set out what you stand for, what you're fighting for and bring that together in one document so that people can see that the modern compassionate Conservative Party is in it for everybody - not just the rich ~ David Cameron
Conservative Party quotes by David Cameron
Conservative Party membership has almost halved since David Cameron become leader. The truth is the Tories are financially reliant on, and as a result are governing on behalf of, an ever-shrinking class of people. The more they attack working peoples' attempts to have some influence on the political landscape, the more they reveal that they govern for the millionaires, not the millions. ~ Len McCluskey
Conservative Party quotes by Len McCluskey
It is quite widely known that I like shoes. This is not something that defines me as either a woman or a politician, but it has come to define me in the eyes of the newspapers. I wore a pair of leopard-print kitten heels to a Conservative Party Conference a few years ago and the papers have continued to focus on my feet ever since. ~ Theresa May
Conservative Party quotes by Theresa May
Is this the situation in the modern Conservative party? That women should be seen and not heard? ~ Harriet Harman
Conservative Party quotes by Harriet Harman
One of the big weaknesses of the Conservative Party is not just their ignorance of and lack of effective response to the cost-of-living crisis but a more fundamental error about what makes for success in the 21st century. ~ Douglas Alexander
Conservative Party quotes by Douglas Alexander
The Conservative Party have got to ask themselves, 'How do we persuade people who at the moment are voting Labour and Liberal Democrat to vote Conservative ~ Kenneth Clarke
Conservative Party quotes by Kenneth Clarke
I am getting frustrated by the fact that we have been out of office for eight years. I desperately want to lead the Conservative Party to make quicker progress back into power. ~ Kenneth Clarke
Conservative Party quotes by Kenneth Clarke
Anya Hindmarch is indeed a handbag designer; she has the requisite fabulous life, tasteful home, and loving husband. She is also beautiful and self-deprecating, and has five children aged 5 to 20 and a philanthropic bent which spans causes from cancer care to Britain's Conservative Party. ~ Kate Reardon
Conservative Party quotes by Kate Reardon
I am the last person whom it would be reasonable to expect to leave the Conservative Party. ~ Enoch Powell
Conservative Party quotes by Enoch Powell
The test of leadership for David Cameron was actually to bring the British Conservative Party back in to the mainstream. ~ David Miliband
Conservative Party quotes by David Miliband
We want to convey that the modern-day GOP looks like the conservative party that stands on principles. But we want to apply them to urban-suburban hip-hop settings. We need to uptick our image with everyone, including one-armed midgets. ~ Michael Steele
Conservative Party quotes by Michael Steele
- Makes nae fucking difference. Rents n Stevie came up fae London for this. If Rents n Stevie kin come up fae fucking London, Sick Boy kin come up fae fuckcing France.
Spud's senses were dangerously dulled with the alcohol. Stupidly, he kept the argument going. - Yeah, but, eh... France is further away... wir talking aboot the south ay France here, likesay. Ken?
Begbie looked incredulously at Spud. Obviously the message had not got across. He spoke lower, higher and with a snarl twisting his cruel mouth into a strange shape below his blazing eyes.
- IF RENTS N STEVIE KIN COME UP FI FUCKING LONDON, SICK BOY KIN COME UP FAE FUCKING FRANCE!
- Yeah... right enough. Should've made the effort. Mate's funeral likesay, ken. Spud thought that the Conservative Party in Scotland could do with a few Begbies. It's not what the message is, the problem is just communication. Begbie is good at getting the message across. ~ Irvine Welsh
Conservative Party quotes by Irvine Welsh
The Conservative Party has one overriding concern in foreign policy, and that is the growth of Communist power and influence in the world, and the dangers it can bring for all of us. ~ Reginald Maudling
Conservative Party quotes by Reginald Maudling
I trust that whoever leads the Conservative Party actually pays regard to my advice on how we should conduct ourselves and I personally will obviously support whoever eventually wins. ~ Kenneth Clarke
Conservative Party quotes by Kenneth Clarke
Opposition, n. In politics the party that prevents the government from running amuck by hamstringing it. ~ Ambrose Bierce
Conservative Party quotes by Ambrose Bierce
In a Party member, on the other hand, not even the smallest deviation of opinion on the most unimportant subject can be tolerated. ~ George Orwell
Conservative Party quotes by George Orwell
Time to stop crying, time to get her act together and do something. Time to move beyond the pity party. ~ Lisa McMann
Conservative Party quotes by Lisa McMann
Well, I'm a libertarian conservative, so I believe in limited government/maximum individual freedom. ~ John Bolton
Conservative Party quotes by John Bolton
I shoot for 'Extra' three times a week, and that's great for Las Vegas, too. In addition to interviewing stars who are here for shows, parties and premieres, I'll also get peoples' reactions to different news items and topical gossip. ~ Holly Madison
Conservative Party quotes by Holly Madison
It is funny how people - millions and millions of people - go about watching the telly and singing and humming in spite of the fact that they lost brother or father or lover in a war; and what is stranger still, they contemplate with equanimity seeing their other brothers or lovers off to yet another war. They don't see the tragedy of it all. Now and then one of the millions reads a book, or starts thinking, or something shakes him, and then he sees tragedy all over the place. Wherever he looks, he finds tragedy. He finds it tragic that other people don't see this tragedy around them and then he becomes like Font or Edna, or joins some party or other, or marches behind banners until his own life, seen detachedly, becomes a little tragic. ~ Waguih Ghali
Conservative Party quotes by Waguih Ghali
I'm a conservative, and I'm a compassionate conservative. And I think it's important that Florida continues to move in that direction. ~ Charlie Crist
Conservative Party quotes by Charlie Crist
No one at college ever goes to a party before ten-thirty at the very earliest! They'd rather die. It's so uncool to be early. ~ Francine Pascal
Conservative Party quotes by Francine Pascal
Tea Party Republicans, in an effort to kill the farm bill will stereotype and make racial comments about food stamps - which is a big element to the program. ~ Eleanor Clift
Conservative Party quotes by Eleanor Clift
You might be a redneck if the highlight of your parties is when you flip out your false teeth. ~ Jeff Foxworthy
Conservative Party quotes by Jeff Foxworthy
The Obama administration has a nasty habit of equating basic conservative values with terrorism. ~ Tom Fitton
Conservative Party quotes by Tom Fitton
Be whoever you want to be. Party all night if you want. Just come home to me. ~ Dawn Atkins
Conservative Party quotes by Dawn Atkins
The stars glittered in the sky and as the number of people at the party grew there were merging conversations and laughter and bodies moving in outlines around the kegs of beer in a curtsy of youth. ~ Daniel Amory
Conservative Party quotes by Daniel Amory
On Sunday, May 23rd, 1819, all of our people embarked ... " "Our people?" But they went on board themselves, not just some other people that belong to them. So he'd better say "travelling party". No, "the men under my command". But that was also wrong, since the phrase didn't include him, and he had installed himself on the Prince of Wales at the same time. "I and the men" pleased him as little as "the men and I". "We embarked in full number" was inaccurate; the "entire party including my own person" discouraged reading. "On Sunday, May 23rd, 1819, our entire party led by me embarked ... " - Well, now what? ~ Sten Nadolny
Conservative Party quotes by Sten Nadolny
I am an American. Black. Conservative. I don't use African-American, because I'm American, I'm black and I'm conservative. I don't like people trying to label me. African- American is socially acceptable for some people, but I am not some people. ~ Herman Cain
Conservative Party quotes by Herman Cain
The black conservative is responsible for making people question an idea that racism must be extinct before black people can overcome. Understanding that our goal is to thrive despite racism rather than fetishizing it is, in fact, the central ideological plank of people deemed "black conservatives." This is a coherent position, but that can be hard to perceive, given the way that race has been discussed in our land over the past 40 years or so. ~ John H. McWhorter
Conservative Party quotes by John H. McWhorter
Criticism should be done by critics, and a critic should have some training and some love of the medium he is discussing. But these days, gossip-columnist training seems to be enough qualification. I suppose an ability to stand on your feet through interminable cocktail parties and swig interminable gins in between devouring masses of fried prawns may just possibly help you to understand and appreciate what a director is getting at, but for the life of me I can't see how. ~ Peter Sellers
Conservative Party quotes by Peter Sellers
It is to be hoped that the leaders of this movement will place the nation above the party. ~ Franz Von Papen
Conservative Party quotes by Franz Von Papen
Sometimes I would get invited to a party or to go out to dinner by one
of them and I would decline. Part of me wanted to go, but those kind of
outings always made me feel even more alienated than usual. Hearing them
talk made me feel lonely and hateful at the same time. Lonely because I
didn't fit in, never did. When I was reminded, it hurt. And hateful
because it reaffirmed what I already knew, that I was alone and on the
outside. ~ Henry Rollins
Conservative Party quotes by Henry Rollins
The only kind of appeal that wins any instinctive response in party politics is an appeal to hostile feeling; the men who perceive the need of cooperation are powerless. Until education has been directed for a generation into new channels, and the Press has abandoned incitements to hatred, only harmful policies have any chance of being adopted in practice by our present political methods. But there is no obvious means of altering education and the Press until our political system is altered. From this dilemma there is no issue by means of ordinary action, at any rate for a long time to come. The best that can be hoped, it seems to me, is that we should, as many of us as possible, become political skeptics, rigidly abstaining from belief in the various attractive party programmes that are put before us from time to time. ~ Bertrand Russell
Conservative Party quotes by Bertrand Russell
Personally, I like to think my brother is having a college experience like they do in the movies. I don't mean the big fraternity party kind of movie. More like the movie where the guy meets a smart girl who wears a lot of sweaters and drinks cocoa. They talk about books and issues and kiss in the rain. I think something like that would be very good for him, especially if the girl were unconventionally beautiful. They are the best kind of girls, I think. I personally find 'super models' strange. I don't know why this is. ~ Stephen Chbosky
Conservative Party quotes by Stephen Chbosky
Hunting party," Horace said
Both Halt and Will looked at him sarcastically.
"You think?" Will said. "Maybe they found the deer and brought him back to repair him. ~ John Flanagan
Conservative Party quotes by John Flanagan
I think very poorly of United Russia. United Russia is the party of corruption, the party of crooks and thieves. And it is the duty of every patriot and citizen of our country to make sure that this party is destroyed. ~ Alexei Navalny
Conservative Party quotes by Alexei Navalny
The plain truth is that I knew better but went to Everest anyway. And in doing so I was a party to the death of good people, which is something that is apt to remain on my conscience for a very long time. ~ Jon Krakauer
Conservative Party quotes by Jon Krakauer
Everybody thinks of economics whether he is aware of it or not. In joining a political party or in casting his ballot, the citizen implicitly takes a stand upon essential economic theories. ~ Ludwig Von Mises
Conservative Party quotes by Ludwig Von Mises
Justice is justly represented blind, because she sees no difference in the parties concerned. She has but one scale and weight, for rich and poor, great and small. ~ William Penn
Conservative Party quotes by William Penn
The whole party followed, with the exception of Scythrop, who threw himself into his arm-chair, crossed his left foot over his right knee, placed the hollow of his left hand on the interior ancle of his left leg, rested his right elbow on the elbow of the chair, placed the ball of his right thumb against his right temple, curved the forefinger along the upper part of his forehead, rested the point of the middle finger on the bridge of his nose, and the points of the two others on the lower part of the palm, fixed his eyes intently on the veins in the back of his left hand, and sat in this position like the immoveable Theseus, who, as is well known to many who have not been at college, and to some few who have, sedet, oeternumque sedebit. We hope the admirers of the minitiae in poetry and romance will appreciate this accurate description of a pensive attitude. ~ Thomas Love Peacock
Conservative Party quotes by Thomas Love Peacock
Stalking?" Brad made a face, drawing back as if he'd been asked to host a Pampered Chef party. "I didn't say anything about stalking. All I want you to do is stick close to her and check out who she talks to ... see where she goes ... maybe find out what kind of guys are approaching her. That sort of thing. Then report it all back to me. ~ Jennifer Shirk
Conservative Party quotes by Jennifer Shirk
The President's call for more math and science students is not being heeded by his party's leaders in Congress. They are cutting over $10 billion from student aide while refusing to fully fund No Child Left Behind. Something doesn't add up. ~ Jim Clyburn
Conservative Party quotes by Jim Clyburn
I threw my 20th birthday party at Brown, and I didn't even have to say to anyone not to put pictures on Facebook. Not a single picture went up. That was when I knew I'd found a solid group of friends, and I felt like I belonged. ~ Emma Watson
Conservative Party quotes by Emma Watson
Stock ownership in the US is very highly concentrated. [Shareholder actions are] something, but it's like the old Communist Party in the USSR, it would be nice to see more protest inside the Communist Party but it's not democracy. It's not going to happen. [Shareholder actions] are a good step, but they're mostly symbolic. ~ Noam Chomsky
Conservative Party quotes by Noam Chomsky
There can be no truly moral choice unless that choice is made in freedom; similarly, there can be no really firmly grounded and consistent defense of freedom unless that defense is rooted in moral principle. In concentrating on the ends of choice, the conservative, by neglecting the conditions of choice, loses that very morality of conduct with which he is so concerned. And the libertarian, by concentrating only on the means, or conditions, of choice and ignoring the ends, throws away an essential moral defense of his own position. ~ Murray Rothbard
Conservative Party quotes by Murray Rothbard
Today in America, unions have a secure place in our industrial life. Only a handful of reactionaries harbor the ugly thought of breaking unions and depriving working men and women of the right to join the union of their choice. I have no use for those - regardless of their political party - who hold some vain and foolish dream of spinning the clock back to days when organized labor was huddled, almost as a hapless mass. Only a fool would try to deprive working men and women of the right to join the union of their choice. ~ Dwight D. Eisenhower
Conservative Party quotes by Dwight D. Eisenhower
