We are many things. We are liberal - for we do believe that, in judging his own daily welfare, each citizen, however humble, has greater wisdom than any government, however great.

I am that kind of conservative because I am that kind of liberal.

A radical is a man with both feet firmly planted-in the air; a conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned to walk forward; . . . a liberal is a man who uses his legs and his hands at the behest-at the command-of his head.

It is only the unthinking liberals in this world who see nothing but tragedy in the slowing up or temporary stopping of liberal progress.

Liberalism becomes the protection for the far-sighted conservative.

We are conservative - for we can conceive of no higher commission that history could have conferred upon us than that which we humbly bear - the preservation, in this time of tempest and of peril, of the spiritual values that alone give dignity and meaning to man's pilgrimage on this earth.
