The 19th century was the age of Individualism; the 20th and 21st are the ages of Socialism.

If pessimism is despair, optimism is cowardice and stupidity. Is there any need to choose between them?

Hatred is not contained in political thinking. Any hatred worked up against the public enemy is non-political, and always shows some weakness in the internal political situation.

A political theory seeks to find from history the limits of the politically possible.

Liberalism can only be defined negatively. It is a mere critique, not a living idea.

No section of the American populace has been more completely deceived by the forces interested in keeping the truth from the people than America's youth.

Leftist ideas are a part of the very atmosphere which American youth breathes.

Liberalism is a most important by-product of Rationalism, and its origins and ideology must be clearly shown.

Rationalism, which is the feeling that everything is subject to and completely explicable by Reason, consequently rejects everything not visible and calculable.

The State becomes society or humanity on the ethical side, a production and trade system on the economic side.

Man as a pure animal does not exist.

Pessimism only describes an attitude, and not facts, and hence is entirely subjective.

The important part of Marxism was its demand for active, constant, practical, class-war.

As a world view, Darwinism cannot of course be refuted, since Faith is, always has been, and always will be, stronger than facts.

The independence of the economic sphere was a tenet of faith with Liberalism.

The way politics divides the world is into friend and enemy.

Alliance does not mean love, any more than war means hate.

The early American arrived at a land of which he knew nothing.

Politics is activity in relation to power.

The purest expression of the doctrine of Liberalism was probably that of Benjamin Constant.

To an intellectual who is adrift in politics, a theory is an aim; to a true politician his theory is a boundary.

A moment's reflection shows that Liberalism is entirely negative. It is not a formative force, but always and only a disintegrating force.

The 19th century was the age of Individualism; the 20th and 21st are the ages of Socialism.

Every non-political human grouping of whatever kind, legal, social, religious, economic or other becomes at last political if it creates an opposition deep enough to range men against one another as enemies.

To the fantastic mental illness of Rationalism, hard facts are regrettable things, and to talk about them is to create them.

Capitalism is not an economic system, but a world-outlook, or rather, a part of a whole world-outlook.

Every science is a profane restatement of the preceding dogmas of the religious period.

Liberalism is Rationalism in politics.

Capitalism is not an economic system but a world outlook or rather a part of a whole world outlook.

But the age of chivalry is gone. That of sophisters, economists, and calculators has succeeded; and the glory of Europe is extinguished forever.

I grew up with art from the innocent age of ten - with art, but with no sense of identity.

Death comes not to the living soul, nor age to the loving heart.

I'm very pleased to be here. Let's face it, at my age I'm very pleased to be anywhere.

For example, UNICEF works with governments to change legislation such as in India where a law was passed raising the age of compulsory school completion to keep children in school and away from the workplace for longer.

I figured out it was a social thing, what women were allowed to do. At a very young age, I decided I was not going to follow women's rules.

I wish I knew at 14 not to put much thought into what other people my age said to me, cause we were all looking for the answers. So I wish I knew that other people really don't know any more than you do!

I believe very firmly that gay people of every stripe and age should be role models for all children, and that means interacting with them.

Donner likes what he does and enjoys being on a set. He doesn't have to do it, its not like he has to make the rent. When I get to be his age and still enjoy what I'm doing like him, I'd be lucky.

Does age matter? Time doesn't matter.

I realised from a very early age that God gave me a gift, and that gift was to run, and I wanted to use it to the best of my ability.

Looking back, I think we were all quite mature, surprisingly responsible. In earlier wars, boys of our age had just gone off to raise hell or enlist or both, but we stayed dutifully at our desks doing tomorrow's homework.

This is the patent age of new inventions for killing bodies, and for saving souls. All propagated with the best intentions.

Interest is the spur of the people, but glory that of great souls. Invention is the talent of youth, and judgment of age.

For me, having a child is a really great responsibility because you've got something there that is depending on you for information and love until a certain age when it goes to school.

I don't think at my age... you can start ruling people out in politics.

I figured my body always would be able to repair itself. I think all of us believe that - until you begin to age and get hit with deteriorating joints.

Another principle is, the deepest affections of our hearts gather around some human form in which are incarnated the living thoughts and ideas of the passing age.

I read. It's also nice for me to get involved in schoolwork, which is a totally different world than acting. It makes me feel like I am doing things that normal people are doing at my age.

When you're my age and you see a story, you better go for it pretty quickly. I'd just like to get a few more novels under my belt.
