Famous quotes containing the words conservative, party, leadership and/or convention:

    The radical invents the views. When he has worn them out the conservative adopts them.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    One thing you may be sure of, I was not a party to covering up anything.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    The liberal wing of the feminist movement may have improved the lives of its middle- and upper-class constituency—indeed, 1992 was the Year of the White Middle Class Woman—but since the leadership of this faction of the feminist movement has singled out black men as the meta-enemy of women, these women represent one of the most serious threats to black male well-being since the Klan.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)

    No good poetry is ever written in a manner twenty years old, for to write in such a manner shows conclusively that the writer thinks from books, convention and cliché, not from real life.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
