More from Benjamin Disraeli
"I am a man of principle, and my principle is to be ready for anything."
"Little things affect little minds."
"Language and religion do not make a race—there is only one thing which makes a race, and that is blood."
"When a man fell into his anecdotage it was a sign for him to retire from the world."
"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."
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.
