More from Benjamin Disraeli
"A female friend, amiable, clever, and devoted, is a possession more valuable than parks and palaces; and without such a muse, few men can succeed in life, none be contented."
"Be frank and explicit. That is the right line to take when you wish to conceal your own mind and to confuse the minds of others."
"Nobody is forgotten, when it is convenient to remember him."
"All is race; there is no other truth, and every race must fall which carelessly suffers its blood to become mixed."
"What we anticipate seldom occurs; what we least expected generally happens."
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.
