Fielding Side

Famous quotes containing the words fielding and/or side:

    [I]f our reader should be neither informed nor amused, we shall be very sorry for his loss of time as well as our own.
    —Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)

    Populism is folkish, patriotism is not. One can be a patriot and a cosmopolitan. But a populist is inevitably a nationalist of sorts. Patriotism, too, is less racist than is populism. A patriot will not exclude a person of another nationality from the community where they have lived side by side and whom he has known for many years, but a populist will always remain suspicious of someone who does not seem to belong to his tribe.
    John Lukacs (b. 1924)
