More from Benjamin Disraeli
"The health of the people is really the foundation upon which all their happiness and all their powers as a state depend."
"Experience is the child of thought, and thought is the child of action."
"There is no gambling like politics."
"Language and religion do not make a race—there is only one thing which makes a race, and that is blood."
"Action may not always bring happiness; but there is no happiness without action."
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.
