Political Fairy

Famous quotes containing the words political and/or fairy:

    “History suggests that capitalism is a necessary condition for political freedom. Clearly it is not a sufficient condition.”
    —Milton Friedman (b. 1912)

    “Typically, the hero of the fairy tale achieves a domestic, microcosmic triumph, and the hero of myth a world-historical, macrocosmic triumph. Whereas the former—the youngest or despised child who becomes the master of extraordinary powers—prevails over his personal oppressors, the latter brings back from his adventure the means for the regeneration of his society as a whole.”
    —Joseph Campbell (1904–1987)
