Famous quotes containing the words bbc and/or world:

    The word “conservative” is used by the BBC as a portmanteau word of abuse for anyone whose views differ from the insufferable, smug, sanctimonious, naive, guilt-ridden, wet, pink orthodoxy of that sunset home of the third-rate minds of that third-rate decade, the nineteen-sixties.
    Norman Tebbit (b. 1931)

    The silence that accepts merit as the most natural thing in the world is the highest applause.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
