"Liberals feel unworthy of their possessions. Conservatives feel they deserve everything they've stolen."
Mort Sahl

"A conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned how to walk forward."
Franklin Roosevelt

"Men are conservatives when they are least vigorous, or when they are most luxurious. They are conservatives after dinner, or before taking their rest; when they are sick or aged. In the morning, or when their intellect or their conscience has been aroused, when they hear music, or when they read poetry, they are radicals."
Ralph Waldo Emerson

"What is conservatism? It is not adherence to the old and tried, but against the new and untried."
Abraham Lincoln

"The values to which the conservative appeals are inevitably caricatured by the individuals designated to put them into practice."
Harold Rosenberg
