CITATER: KONSERVATISME
Above all, we must
realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is
so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It
is a weapon our adversaries in today's world do not have.
Ronald Reagan
Let every nation
know, whether it wishes us well or ill, we shall pay any price, bear
any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, to
assure the survival and success of liberty.
John F. Kennedy
Ask not what your
country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.
John F. Kennedy
Demokrati:
regering af folket gennem folket for folket.
Abraham Lincoln
Intet menneske er
godt nok til at herske over et andet uden dennes samtykke.
Abraham Lincoln
Hører du nogen
kalde på de store og stærke mænd, er det på tide at samle de svages
styrke igen.
Carl Scharnberg
Det er en fejl, hvis en nation tror, at den kan holde ferie fra historien.
Charles de Gaulle
Kun de døde har set en ende på krig.
Platon
Fornuft måles ikke på størrelse eller højde, men på principper.
Epiktet
Man må aldrig tro, en krig vil være let og nem, eller at en opdagelsesrejsende på forhånd kan
bestemme, hvilke bølger og storme, han på sin rejse vil støde på. Den statsmand, der giver
efter for krigsfeberen, må være klar over, at når signalet først er givet, er han ikke længere
herre over politikken, men slave af uforudsigelige og ukontrollerbare begivenheder.
Sir Winston Spencer
Churchill
Vi vil have
skatten ned, skoletiden op, patienten i centrum og de kriminelle i
fængsel.
Helge Adam Møller
Gud. Konge. Fædreland. Enighed. Arbejde. Udholdenhed.
Motto
på et Fri-konservativt cirkulære 1901.
One ought never
to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it.
If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it
promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half.
Sir Winston Spencer
Churchill
Freedom is a
fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from
extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and
defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a
people. Those who have known freedom, and then lost it, have never
known it again.
Ronald Reagan
You and I have a
rendezvous with destiny. We will preserve for our children this, the
last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the
first step into a thousand years of darkness. If we fail, at least let
our children and our children's children say of us we justified our
brief moment here. We did all that could be done.
Ronald Reagan
I am in politics because
of the conflict between good and evil, and I believe that in the end
good will triumph.
Margaret Thatcher
When the eagles
are silent, the parrots begin to jabber.
Sir Winston Spencer
Churchill
Our culture is
superior. Our culture is superior because our religion is christianity
and that is the truth that makes men free.
Patrick J.
Buchanan
A constitution
that is made for all nations is made for none.
Joseph de Maistre
Neither man or
nation can exist without a sublime idea.
Roger Scruton
Conservatism is
not about freedom, but authority, and that in any case freedom
divorced from authority is of no use to anyone - not even to the one
who possesses it.
Roger Scruton
If it were not for
Christ's Church, indeed there would be no restraint on the criminal in
his evildoing, and no punishment for it later, real punishment, that
is, not a mechanical one such as it has been mentioned, which only
chafes the heart in most cases, but a real punishment, the only real,
the only frightening an appeasing punishment, which lies in the
acknowledgement of ones conscience.
Joseph de Maistre
All great things
are simple, and many can be expressed in singel words: freedom,
justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.
Sir Winston Spencer
Churchill
Man in general, if
reduced to himself, is to wicked to be free.
Abraham Lincoln
I thought ten
thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards to avenge even a
look that threatened her with insult. But the age of chivalry is gone.
Joseph de Maistre
