Famous quotes containing the words open, gay and/or community:

    A politician is a statesman who approaches every question with an open mouth.

    If love the virgin’s heart invade,

    —John Gay (1685–1732)

    Populism is folkish, patriotism is not. One can be a patriot and a cosmopolitan. But a populist is inevitably a nationalist of sorts. Patriotism, too, is less racist than is populism. A patriot will not exclude a person of another nationality from the community where they have lived side by side and whom he has known for many years, but a populist will always remain suspicious of someone who does not seem to belong to his tribe.
    John Lukacs (b. 1924)
