Text Quotes
Why do you think great leaders and great orations are coincident with wars, revolutions, and the founding or ending of governments and states? Common interests then are so clear that speeches are effortlessly drawn, but at present neither the facts nor the consequences are sufficiently clear to make oratory legitimate. This is the kind of war that will wind on and make fools of its partisans and opponents both  (Partisans Quotes) I have nothing to do with the partisans. I wish to defy society not in order to improve it, but to hold it at bay no matter what. I suspend my achievements - but also my demands  (Partisans Quotes) Closing one’s ears to the complaints of partisans would also entail closing one’s mind to the substance of their arguments  (Partisans Quotes) Memo to extreme partisans: If you can’t bring yourselves to love your enemies, can you at least learn to hate your friends?  (Partisans Quotes) It is difficult to discriminate the voice of truth from amid the clamor raised by heated partisans  (Partisans Quotes) It is very significant that some of the most thoughtful and cultured men are partisans of a pure vegetable diet  (Partisans Quotes) I am for a government rigorously frugal and simple, applying all the possible savings of the public revenue to the discharge of the national debt; and not for a multiplication of officers and salaries merely to make partisans, and for increasing, by every device, the public debt, on the principle of its being a public blessing  (Partisans Quotes) There is nothing more difficult to plan, more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to manage than the creation of a new order of things... Whenever his enemies have occasion to attack the innovator they do so with the passion of partisans, while the others defend him sluggishly so that the innovator and his party alike are vulnerable  (Partisans Quotes) The egalitarian doctrine is manifestly contrary to all the facts established by biology and by history. Only fanatical partisans of this theory can contend that what distinguishes the genius from the dullard is entirely the effect of postnatal influences  (Partisans Quotes) This minority is great and formidable. I do not know whether, if I aimed at the total overthrow of a kingdom, I should wish to be encumbered with a large body of partisans  (Partisans Quotes) May the partisans of all doctrines in all countries unite and live in a common fellowship. For all alike profess mastery to be attained over oneself and purity of the heart  (Partisans Quotes) True partisans draft legislation that gives themselves everything and their enemies nothing. They love bills that repulse and even disgust the other side. Today’s politics have become an all-or-nothing, black-or-white, zero-sum game - it’s not a contact sport but a blood sport.  (Partisans Quotes) Closing one’s ears to the complaints of partisans would also entail closing one’s mind to the substance of their arguments.  (Partisans Quotes) There must be a rule of thumb in pop-culture archaeology that states that the allure of any topic is inversely related to its assigned importance in the affairs of humanity. The more trivial the subject, the dearer it is to most of its partisans and the more worthy of scholarship. The smallest things in life often mean the most to people.  (Partisans Quotes) Committed partisans are generally the most knowledgeable voters, independents the least. And the more political knowledge people have, the more apt they are to discuss politics with people who agree with, and reinforce, them.  (Partisans Quotes) It is really no surprise that, in a media world that has been so compromised by an invasion of political partisans and inarticulate airheads with communications degrees, a fake journalist can seem more trustworthy than the real thing.  (Partisans Quotes)
