Listening to a speech by [Neville] Chamberlain is like paying a visit to Woolworth's, everything in its place and nothing above sixpence.

Trade unions are islands of anarchy in a sea of chaos.

Damn it all you can't have the crown of thorns and the thirty pieces of silver.

What should be the glory of the profession is that a doctor should be able to meet his patients with no financial anxiety.

The worst thing I can say about democracy is that it has tolerated the right hon. Gentleman for four and a half years.

There can be no immaculate conception of socialism.

I am not going to spend any time whatsoever in attacking the Foreign Secretary. If we complain about the tune, there is no reason to attack the monkey when the organ grinder is present.

No society can legitimately call itself civilized if a sick person is denied medical aid because of lack of means.

We could manage to survive without money changers and stockbrokers. We should find it harder to do without miners, steel workers and those who cultivate the land.

He [Winston Churchill] is a man suffering from petrified adolescence.

Aneurin Bevan 69 quotes

The Tories always hold the view that the state is an apparatus for the protection of the swag of the property owners ... Christ drove the money changers out of the temple, but you inscribe their title deed on the altar cloth.

The Prime Minister wins debate after debate and loses battle after battle. The country is beginning to say that he fights debates like a war and the war like a debate.

Aneurin Bevan 69 quotes

[Winston Churchill] never spares himself in conversation. He gives himself so generously that hardly anyone else is permitted to give anything in his presence.

He has the lucidity which is the by-product of a fundamentally sterile mind.

Aneurin Bevan 69 quotes

Now, the vicissitudes that afflict the individual have their source in society. It is this situation that has given currency to the phrase social forces. Personal relations have given way to impersonal ones. The Great Society has arrived and the task of our generation is to bring it under control. The study of how it is to be done is the function of politics.

I welcome this opportunity of pricking the bloated bladder of lies with the poniard of truth
