Liberal Democrat Party

Famous quotes containing the words liberal, democrat and/or party:

    Since he hath got the jewel that I loved,
    And that which you did swear to keep for me,
    I will become as liberal as you,
    I’ll not deny him anything I have,
    No, not my body nor my husband’s bed.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I am a democrat only on principle, not by instinct—nobody is that. Doubtless some people say they are, but this world is grievously given to lying.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    We are in a period when old questions are settled and the new are not yet brought forward. Extreme party action, if continued in such a time, would ruin the party. Moderation is its only chance. The party out of power gains by all partisan conduct of those in power.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
