“Women are directly adapted to act as the nurses and educators of our early childhood, for the simple reason that they themselves are childish, foolish, and short-sighted—in a word, are big children all their lives, something intermediate between the child and the man, who is a man in the strict sense of the word. Consider how a young girl will toy day after day with a child, dance with it and sing to it; and then consider what a man, with the very best intentions in the world, could do in her place.” – Arthur Schopenhauer

“If you see your country being overrun by foreigners but can’t speak freely, are elected to office but can’t participate in government even after successful elections, and can’t evade the scrutiny of the political police, you aren’t free. I see no difference between the political regimes of Russia and Western Europe, except that President Vladimir Putin doesn’t seem to be actively replacing his own people, unlike Angela Merkel.” – Gregory Hood

“All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.” – Edmund Burke

On how the appetite for democracy wanes in crisis: “In times of relative tranquility, we feel we can afford to be patient. We understand that policy questions are complicated and merit careful thought. We want our leaders to consult experts, gather as much information as possible, test assumptions,, and give us a chance to voice our opinions on the available options. We see long-term planning as necessary and deliberation as a virtue, but when we decide that action is urgently needed, our tolerance for delay disappears.” – Madeline Albright

The importance of race to identity: “In one phrase – hostility to the negro as a citizen. The South cares for no other question. Everything gives way to it. They support or oppose men, advocate or denounce policies, flatter or murder, just as such action will help them as far as possible to recover their old power over the negro.” – Reconstruction Era Governor Ames of Missisippi

“Freedom, in other words, is more a capacity to act according to what is best within our given natures as men and women, rather than an autonomy to self-define.” – Oz Conservative

“You can’t fight two wars at once.” – Donald Trump

“It’s not about the economy, stupid.” – Patrick J. Buchanan

“Individual moslems may show splendid qualities; but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those that follow it.” – Winston Churchill

“A mistake libertarians make is to think that you can uphold the good of the individual whilst letting the communal setting of life fall apart. We are social creatures. We require a life together with others to live well and to fulfil who we are.” – Oz Conservative

“Well-balanced men, who are secure and confident in their masculinity are far less likely to harm women than men who are insecure of resentful.” – Oz Conservative

On the instability of ethnic diversity: “The more different parts you have, the less compatible they are together.” – Nicholas Fuentes

On the traditional and modern understanding of liberty: “Liberty, by this understanding, was not doing as one wishes, but was choosing the right and virtuous course. To be free, above all, was to be free from enslavement to one’s own basest desires, which could never be fulfilled, and the pursuit of which could only foster ceaseless craving and discontent.” – Patrick Deneen

“Liberty, as defined by the originators of modern liberalism, was the condition in which humans were completely free to pursue whatever they desired.” – Patrick Deneen

“Tolerance and apathy are the last virtues of a dying society.” – Aristotle

“If you assume that you live in a society that only exists as a collection of self-creating individuals with no distinct ties to each other, then what is there really at the larger level to defend?” – Oz Conservative
