More quotes by Benjamin Disraeli
There is no act of treachery or meanness of which a political party is not capable for in politics there is no honour.
Benjamin Disraeli
Sorry only counts for that which it cannot alter.
Benjamin Disraeli
O Music! Miraculous art! A blast of thy trumpet and millions rush forward to die a peal of thy organ and uncounted nations sink down to pray.
Benjamin Disraeli
I look upon parliamentary government as the noblest government in the world, and certainly one most suited to England. But without the discipline of political connection, animated by the principle of private honor, I feel certain that a popular assembly would sink before the power or the corruption of a minister.
Benjamin Disraeli
Principle is ever my motto, no expediency.
Benjamin Disraeli
Scientific, like spiritual truth, has ever from the beginning been descending from heaven to man.
Benjamin Disraeli
Gentlemen, the Tory party, unless it is a national party, is nothing.
Benjamin Disraeli
A female friend, amiable, clever, and devoted, is a possession more valuable than parks and palaces and without such a muse, few men can succeed in life, none be contented.
Benjamin Disraeli
Friendship is the gift of the gods, and the most precious boon to man.
Benjamin Disraeli
Life is too short to be little. Man is never so manly as when he feels deeply, acts boldly, and expresses himself with frankness and with fervour.
Benjamin Disraeli
The age does not believe in great men, because it does not possess any.
Benjamin Disraeli
Everyone likes flattery and when you come to Royalty you should lay it on with a trowel.
Benjamin Disraeli
England is a domestic country. Here the home is revered and the hearth sacred. The nation is represented by a family,--the Royal family,--and if that family is educated with a sense of responsibility and a sentiment of public duty, it is difficult to exaggerate the salutary influence it may exercise over a nation.
Benjamin Disraeli
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.
Benjamin Disraeli
A great city, whose image dwells in the memory of man, is the type of some great idea. Rome represents conquest Faith hovers over the towers of Jerusalem and Athens embodies the pre-eminent quality of the antique world, Art.
Benjamin Disraeli
Mediocrity can talk, but it is for genius to observe.
Benjamin Disraeli
Change is inevitable. Change is constant.
Benjamin Disraeli
In politics experiments means revolutions.
Benjamin Disraeli
Nobody should ever look anxious except those who have no anxiety.
Benjamin Disraeli
There is no gambling like politics. Nothing in which the power of circumstance is more evident.
