"A conservative is someone who makes no changes and consults his grandmother when in doubt." ― Woodrow Wilson Topic(s): Politics More From Woodrow Wilson "Democracy is not so much a form of government as a set of principles." "Liberty has never come from Government. Liberty has always come from the subjects of it. The history of liberty is a history of limitations of governmental power, not the increase of it." "I have long enjoyed the friendship and companionship of Republicans because I am by instinct a teacher, and I would like to teach them something." More In Politics "The most shocking fact about war is that its victims and its instruments are individual human beings, and that these individual beings are condemned by the monstrous conventions of politics to murder or be murdered in quarrels not their own."― Aldous Huxley "Well, biology today as I see it has an amiable look – quite different from the 19th-century view that the whole arrangement of nature is hostile, ‘red in tooth and claw.’ That came about because people misread Darwin’s ‘survival of the fittest.’"― Lewis Thomas "To err is human. To blame someone else is politics."― Hubert H. Humphrey
