More from Benjamin Disraeli
"I deny that a people can govern itself. Self-government is a contradiction in terms. Whatever form a government assumes, power must be exercised by a minority of numbers."
"An English revolution is at least a solemn sacrifice: a French revolution is an indecent massacre."
"The future is not a gift, it is an achievement."
"The unimpaired Purity of the Public Credit, the Maintenance of the Institutions of the Country, and the Increase of the Welfare of the People, are the three great objects of the Conservative Party."
"The greatest secret of success in life is to be ready when your opportunity comes."
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.
