Radical

Famous quotes containing the word radical:

    Our conscience is not the vessel of eternal verities. It grows with our social life, and a new social condition means a radical change in conscience.
    Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)

    Considering that, all hatred driven hence,
    The soul recovers radical innocence
    And learns at last that it is self-delighting,
    Self-appeasing, self-affrighting,
    And that its own sweet will is Heaven’s will;
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    To the indefinite, uncertain mind of the American radical the most contradictory ideas and methods are possible. The result is a sad chaos in the radical movement, a sort of intellectual hash, which has neither taste nor character.
    Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
