Famous quotes containing the words young and/or liberals:
“But ‘tis a common proof
That lowliness is young ambition’s ladder,
Whereto the climber-upward turns his face;
But when he once attains the upmost round
He then unto the ladder turns his back,
Looks in the clouds, scorning the base degrees
By which he did ascend.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The liberals can understand everything but people who don’t understand them.”
—Lenny Bruce (1925–1966)
