Lord Tebbit

Famous quotes containing the words lord and/or tebbit:

    Rou-cou spoke the dove,
    Like the sooth lord of sorrow,
    Of sooth love and sorrow,
    And a hail-bow, hail-bow,
    To this morrow.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    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)
