One of the hardest things in this world is to admit you are wrong. And nothing is more helpful in resolving a situation than its frank admission.

Most people die with their music still locked up inside them.

Benjamin Disraeli 809 quotes

Never argue. In society nothi...

Never argue. In society nothing must be; give only results. If any person differs from you, bow, and turn the conversation.

Benjamin Disraeli 809 quotes

Nonsense, when earnest, is im...

Nonsense, when earnest, is impressive, and sometimes takes you in. If you are in a hurry, you occasionally mistake it for sense.

Benjamin Disraeli 809 quotes

If you establish a democracy,...

If you establish a democracy, you must in due time reap the fruits of a democracy. You will in due season have great impatience of public burdens, combined in due season with great increase of public expenditure. You will in due season have wars entered into from passion and not from reason; and you will in due season submit to peace ignominiously sought and ignominiously obtained, which will diminish your authority and perhaps endanger your independence. You will in due season find your property is less valuable, and your freedom less complete.

Truth travels slowly, but it will reach even you in time.

Christianity teaches us to love our neighbor as ourself; modern society acknowledges no neighbor.

We are not creatures of circumstance; we are creators of circumstance.

Man is a being born to believe. And if no church comes forward with its title-deeds of truth to guide him, he will find altars and idols in his own heart and his own imagination.

Nature has given us two ears but only one mouth.

Wherever is found what is called a paternal government, there is found state education. It has been discovered that the best way to insure implicit obedience is to commence tyranny in the nursery.

Benjamin Disraeli 809 quotes

All of us encounter, at least...

All of us encounter, at least once in our life, some individual who utters words that make us think forever. There are men whose phrases are oracles; who condense in one sentence the secrets of life; who blurt out an aphorism that forms a character or illustrates an existence.

Benjamin Disraeli 809 quotes

Nurture your mind with great thoughts, for you will never go any higher than you think.

Benjamin Disraeli 809 quotes

One event makes another. What...

One event makes another. What we anticipate seldom occurs; what we least expected generally happens; and time can only prove which is most for our advantage.

Benjamin Disraeli 809 quotes

He thinks posterity is a pack-horse, always ready to be loaded.

Without tact you can learn nothing. Tact teaches you when to be silent. Inquirers who are always questioning never learn anything.
