William F. Buckley, Jr.

With the author

The best defense against usurpatory government is an assertive citizenry.

William F. Buckley, Jr.

Liberals, it has been said, are generous with other peoples' money, except when it comes to questions of national survival when they prefer to be generous with other people's freedom and security.

William F. Buckley, Jr.

William F. Buckley, Jr.

I'd rather entrust the government of the United States to the first 400 people listed in the Boston telephone directory than to the faculty of Harvard University.

William F. Buckley, Jr.

Immanuel Kant

Rob Burrow

Laurel Clark

Donald Trump is a phenomenon that foreign countries haven't seen. So it is a shocking experience to them that he came in to office.

Henry Kissinger

For me, the desire exists less to get myself a degree than to just go and have the whole college experience, and throw myself into the brain pool and see if I can swim.

Joshua Jackson

The story of my life is the Chicano experience personified.

Cedric Bixler-Zavala
