“The prosecution [of impeachments], will seldom fail to agitate the passions of the whole community, and to divide it into parties more or less friendly or inimical to the accused. The subjects of its jurisdiction are those offenses which proceed from the misconduct of public men, or, in other words, from the abuse or violation of some public trust, and they relate chiefly to injuries done immediately to the society itself.” MenDoneWholePassionCommunityPartyFailingSubjectsAbuseRelateInjuryFriendlyDividesOffenseAccusedViolationProsecutionJurisdictionImpeachmentPublic TrustAgitateMisconduct Author:Alexander Hamilton
“I know all about violence and physical abuse because my first husband used to beat me severely when he got drunk. Once, I can remember coming home from a party and walking up our vast marble staircase at the Fifth Avenue house while he was striking me.

“With all due respect, many in the entertainment industry are deep into mind-altering substance abuse, and when one's logic and intellectual calculating powers are replaced with dopey feel-good, fantasy-driven denial, the democratic party serves them well.” FeelsMindWellsPartyFantasyIndustryIntellectualLogicAbuseDemocraticEntertainmentDuesDrivenFeel GoodDenialSubstanceReplacedDemocratic PartyEntertainment IndustryCalculatingSubstance Abuse Author:Ted Nugent
“Long ago, there was a noble word, liberal, which derives from the word free. Now a strange thing happened to that word. A man named Hitler made it a term of abuse, a matter of suspicion, because those who were not with him were against him, and liberals had no use for Hitler. And then another man named McCarthy cast the same opprobrium on the word. ... We must cherish and honor the word free or it will cease to apply to us.” MenLongMadeMatterUsePoliticalTermPartyHappenedStrangeHonorAbuseCastsNobleThings HappenCeaseMade ItCherishSuspicionLong AgoPolitical PartiesAnother ManStrange Things Author:Eleanor Roosevelt
“The conservatives have already accepted a large part of the collectivist creed-a creed that has governed policy for so long that many of its institutions have come to be accepted as a matter of course and have become a source of pride to "conservative" parties who created them. Here the believer in freedom cannot but conflict with the conservative and take an essentially radical position, directed against popular prejudices, entrenched positions, and firmly established privileges. Follies and abuses are no better for having long been established principles of folly.” LongMatterCoursesPartyPrinciplesPolicyPositionSourcePrideConflictAbusePrejudiceInstitutionsPrivilegeConservativeBelieverAcceptedRadicalFollyCreedsConservative Party Author:Friedrich August von Hayek
“In the Communist Party, we address problems very openly and sometimes very vocally, and we point out abuses. This is a good thing. We exercise self-criticism once a year. Although 80 percent of the members of the National Assembly are also members of the Communist Party, this does not prevent them from sharply criticizing the administrative and governmental system.” YearsDoeSelfSometimesProblemPartyExerciseMembersPercentCriticismAbuseGood ThingsAddressesCriticizeCommunistAssemblyAdministrativeCommunist PartySelf Criticism Author:Nguyen Minh Triet
