"You have enemies? Good. That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life."
"The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter."
"A lady came up to me one day and said ‘Sir! You are drunk’, to which I replied ‘I am drunk today madam, and tomorrow I shall be sober but you will still be ugly."
"A fanatic is one who can’t change his mind and won’t change the subject."
"A politician needs the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year. And to have the ability afterwards to explain why it didn’t happen."
"Nothing in life is so exhilarating as to be shot at without result."
"If Hitler invaded hell I would make at least a favourable reference to the devil in the House of Commons."
"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy."
