International Amateur Radio Union/garec

Famous quotes containing the words amateur, radio and/or union:

    “The true gardener then brushes over the ground with slow and gentle hand, to liberate a space for breath round some favourite; but he is not thinking about destruction except incidentally. It is only the amateur like myself who becomes obsessed and rejoices with a sadistic pleasure in weeds that are big and bad enough to pull, and at last, almost forgetting the flowers altogether, turns into a Reformer.”
    —Freya Stark (1893–1993)

    “A liberal is a socialist with a wife and two children.”
    —Anonymous. BBC Radio 4 (April 8, 1990)

    “To emancipate [the slaves] entirely throughout the Union cannot, I conceive, be thought of, consistently with the safety of the country.”
    —Frances Trollope (1780–1863)
