More from Benjamin Disraeli
"I must follow the people. Am I not their leader?"
"Life is too short to be little."
"Money is power, and rare are the heads that can withstand the possession of great power."
"Grief is the agony of an instant: the indulgence of grief is the blunder of life."
"An author who speaks about their own books is almost as bad as a mother who speaks about her own children."
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.
