More from Benjamin Disraeli
"An author who speaks about their own books is almost as bad as a mother who speaks about her own children."
"There is no act of treachery or meanness of which a political party is not capable; for in politics there is no honour."
"The only object of a good government is to obtain the greatest happiness of the greatest number."
"A canter is the cure for all evil."
"Ah, Ireland... That damnable, delightful country, where everything that is right is the opposite of what it ought to be."
About Benjamin Disraeli (1804-1881)
British Prime Minister who built modern Conservative populism; the only PM of Jewish heritage and a celebrated novelist before politics. Closely associated with Lord Salisbury (his Conservative successor as PM). For an intellectual contrast, see William Ewart Gladstone, four-time Liberal Prime Minister — the two alternated as PM four times — Gladstone's free-trade moralism and Disraeli's imperialist pragmatism are the founding poles of British party politics.
