More from Benjamin Disraeli
"A self-made man, who worships his creator."
"I make it a rule only to believe what I understand."
"A university should be a place of light, of liberty, and of learning."

"The fruit of my tree of knowledge is plucked, and it is this: “Adventures are to the adventurous.”"
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.
