My opinion, my conviction, gains immensely in strength and sureness the minute a second mind as adopted it.
Malcolm Muggeridge
The English have this extraordianry respect for longevity. The best example of this was Queen Victoria, a most unpleasant woman who achieved a sort of public affection simply by living to be an enormous age.
Malcolm Muggeridge
God, stay with me, let no word cross my lips that is not your word, no thoughts enter my mind that are not your thoughts, no deed ever be done or entertained by me that is not your deed.
Malcolm Muggeridge
In politics, as in womanizing, failure is decisive. It sheds its retrospective gloom on earlier endeavor which at the time seemed full of promise.
Malcolm Muggeridge
It's a sad thing about politics that most people get power too late, in that they differ from ladies of easy virtue who get their pleasures too early.
Malcolm Muggeridge
He was not only a bore he bored for England.
Malcolm Muggeridge
The only thing that really teaches one what life's about the joy of understanding, the joy of coming in contact with what life really signifies - is suffering, affliction.
Malcolm Muggeridge
I think that Harold MacMillan is a very intelligent man, who, as so often happens in politics, achieved supreme power too late.

The Sputnik is just to me like a firework, a rocket, a new invention.

Sex is the mysticism of materialism.
Malcolm Muggeridge
Tranquilizers to overcome angst, pep pills to wake us up, life pills to ensure blissful sterility. I will lift up my ears unto the pills whence cometh my help.
Malcolm Muggeridge
I think Winston Churchill is an appallingly bad politician, and always has been, that he hung onto power long after he should have done, and that his post-war administration was a disaster.
Malcolm Muggeridge
History will see advertising as one of the real evil things of our time. It is stimulating people constantly to want things, want this, want that.
Malcolm Muggeridge
What will finally destroy us is not communism or fascism, but man acting like God.
Malcolm Muggeridge
I doubt whether the Revolution has, in essentials, changed Russia at all. Reading Gogol, or Dostoevsky for that matter, one realizes how completely the Soviet regime has fallen back on to, and perhaps invigorated, the old Russia. Certainly there is much more of Gogol and Dostoievsky in the regime than there is of Marx.
Malcolm Muggeridge
Civilization - a heap of rubble scavenged by scrawny English Lit. vultures.
Malcolm Muggeridge
People say that the Bible is a boring book...but they don't say that about Shakespeare, because the people who teach Shakespeare are zealous for Shakespeare.
Malcolm Muggeridge
I beg you to believe that life is not a process, it's a drama
Malcolm Muggeridge
It is simply that America is very rich and very powerful and generally speaking everybody hates the rich and the powerful.
Malcolm Muggeridge
Accumulating knowledge is a form of avarice and lends itself to another version of the Midas story ...man [is] so avid for knowledge that everything that he touches turns to facts his faith becomes theology his love becomes lechery his wisdom becomes science pursuing meaning, he ignores truth.
