Liam Quotes

My great objective as a parliamentarian was to dramatise the deficiencies and devise practical government programs to deal with them. It was a cause that went to the heart of our way of life Picture Quote #1

Parliamentary government is simply a mild and disguised form of compulsion. We agree to try strength by counting heads instead of breaking heads, but the principle is exactly the same... The minority gives way not because it is convinced that it is wrong, but because it is convinced that it is a minority Picture Quote #1

Parliaments are in all cases to declare what is good for the whole; but it is not the declaration of parliament that makes it so Picture Quote #1

I’ve always thought of my own mind as an unruly parliament, with a feeble leader, with crazy extremist factions Picture Quote #1

I am resigning my post in the parliament. I have done this because I think it is the right thing to do Picture Quote #1

Parliaments have stopped laughing at woman suffrage, and politicians have begun to dodge! It is the inevitable premonition of coming victory Picture Quote #1

The socialist parties of all countries are duty bound to fight energetically for the implementation of universal women’s suffrage which is to be vigorously advocated both by agitation and by parliamentary means. When a battle for suffrage is conducted, it should only be conducted according to socialist principles, and therefore with the demand of universal suffrage for women and men Picture Quote #1

You must not deprive the colonies of their right to make laws for themselves. Parliament should only make laws necessary for the empire as a whole Picture Quote #1

Environmental historians... insist that we have got to go... down to the earth itself as an agent and presence in history. Here we will discover even more fundamental forces at work over time. And to appreciate those forces we must now and then get out of parliamentary chambers, out of birthing rooms and factories, get out of doors altogether, and ramble into fields, woods, and the open air. It is time we bought a good set of walking shoes, and we cannot avoid getting some mud on them Picture Quote #1

William knows that science and magic are the same thing; magic is only science that hasn’t been explained yet. Tonight he has made chemistry into magic for her Picture Quote #1

The kind of people I myself represent in parliament; salary earners, shopkeepers, skilled artisans, professional men and women, farmers and so on, these are, in a political and economic sense, the middle class. They are for the most part unorganised and unselfconscious Picture Quote #1

Most parliamentarians don’t have a clue as regards the challenges or the opportunities the games industry faces Picture Quote #1

Parliament has become so undermined it is almost unable to do the job that people expect of it. A glaring example is the budget bill, where there was no thoughtful debate or scrutiny of the legislation Picture Quote #1

Parliament is a deliberate assembly of one nation, with one interest, that of the whole; where, not local purpose, not local prejudices ought to guide but the general good, resulting from the general reason of the whole Picture Quote #1

Everybody is a political person, whether you say something or you are silent. A political attitude is not whether you go to parliament; it’s how you deal with your life, with your surroundings Picture Quote #1

We used to actually kill each other before we discovered rhetoric in words. If you look at other countries, there are people attacking each other in parliament and stuff Picture Quote #1

As states subsist in part by keeping their weaknesses from being known, so is it the quiet of families to have their chancery and their parliament within doors, and to compose and determine all emergent differences there Picture Quote #1

Idleness and pride tax with a heavier hand than kings and parliaments. If we can get rid of the former, we may easily bear the latter Picture Quote #1

Parliament will train you to talk; and above all things to hear, with patience, unlimited quantities of foolish talk Picture Quote #1

Media populism means appealing to people directly through media. A politician who can master the media can shape political affairs outside of parliament and even eliminate the mediation of parliament Picture Quote #1

And think of how we challenged the idea of a male dominated Parliament with All-Women shortlists and made the cause of gender equality central to our government. We were right to do so Picture Quote #1

A patriot is he whose public conduct is regulated by one single motive, the love of his country; who, as an agent in parliament, has, for himself, neither hope nor fear, neither kindness nor resentment, but refers every thing to the common interest Picture Quote #1

You may be cool. But you’ll never be Liam Neeson getting his shoes tied up by Olivia Wilde cool Picture Quote #1

Defenders of the status quo will argue that this system has served us well over the centuries, that our parliamentary traditions have combined stability and flexibility and that we should not cast away in a minute what has taken generations to build Picture Quote #1

Pacifist propaganda and the resolutions of the parliamentarians encouraged such treaties, and toward the end of the nineteenth century their number had increased considerably Picture Quote #1

I’m much more attracted personally to governments going their full term. It’s very hard to have a fixed term election I know with ah... A parliamentary democracy, but I’ve always had an instinct to say there should be a fixed term Picture Quote #1

No matter how many troops we have in place or how long they stay, we cannot impose a parliamentary democracy there any more than the insurgents can impose a theocracy Picture Quote #1

I thought it was terrible. I don’t know who to believe. Williams was very loyal and honest. Nobody could ever say different. Sometimes, that got him into a lot of trouble. But after he died and they cut his head off, that made me sick Picture Quote #1

Spare me a lecture from somebody in parliament to somebody who started out delivering flowers for 25c a shot Picture Quote #1
