Liberal

Famous quotes containing the word liberal:

    Be composed—be at ease with me—I am Walt Whitman, liberal and lusty
    as Nature,
    Not till the sun excludes you do I exclude you,
    Not till the waters refuse to glisten for you and the leaves to rustle for you, do my words refuse to glisten and rustle for you.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    Since he hath got the jewel that I loved,
    And that which you did swear to keep for me,
    I will become as liberal as you,
    I’ll not deny him anything I have,
    No, not my body nor my husband’s bed.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    A liberal is a socialist with a wife and two children.
