Famous quotes containing the words liberal and/or democrat:

    “We imagined that the sun shining on their bare heads had stamped a liberal and public character on their most private thoughts.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The seasick passenger on an ocean liner detests the good sailor who stalks past him 265 times a day grandly smoking a large, greasy cigar. In precisely the same way the democrat hates the man who is having a better time in the world. This is the origin of democracy. It is also the origin of Puritanism.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
