Famous quotes containing the words socialism and/or conference:
“Theres no such thing as socialism pure
Except as an abstraction of the mind.
Theres only democratic socialism,
Monarchic socialism, oligarchic
The last being what they seem to have in Russia.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“For 350 years we have been taught that reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man and writing an exact man. Footballs place is to add a patina of character, a deference to the rules and a respect for authority.”
—Walter Wellesley (Red)
