“A Finnan haddock has a relish of a peculiar and delicate flavour, inimitable on any other coast than that of Aberdeenshire. Some of our Edinburgh philosophers tried to produce their equal in vain. I was one of a party at dinner where the philosophical haddocks were placed in competition with the genuine Finnan fish. These were served round without distinguishing whence they came; but only one gentleman out of twelve present espoused the cause of philosophy.” PhilosophyCausesPartyFoodProduceEqualPhilosophicalCookingCompetitionRoundsFishesPhilosopherDinnerGenuineVainGentlemanCulinaryPeculiarDelicateTwelveCoastRelishFlavourEdinburgh Author:Walter Scott
“The suggestion of denying any measure of their full political rights to such a great group of our population as the colored people is one which, however it might be received in some other quarters, could not possibly be permitted by one who feels a responsibility for living up to the traditions and maintaining the principles of the Republican Party.

I have taken my oath to support that Constitution.” FeelsMightPoliticalPartyRaceResponsibilityPrinciplesSupportTakenRightsGroupsColorCitizensRepublicanEqualTraditionAccountsConstitutionPopulationDiscriminationCivil RightsAfrican AmericanGuaranteesQuartersSuggestionsRepublican PartyMaintainingEqual RightsOathPolitical Rights Author:Calvin Coolidge

Both we and the West benefit from this in equal measure.” CountryGovernmentNationsInterestPartyEconomyDevelopmentEqualBenefitsWestWesternChinaLocalsOur CountryOppositionCommunistInvestorsVietnamProtectedAsiaBeneficialAffluenceCommunist Party Author:Nguyen Minh Triet
“If racism is not the whole of the Tea Party, it is in its heart, along with blind hatred, a total disinterest in the welfare of others, and a full-flowered self-rationalizing refusal to accept the outcomes of elections, or the reality of democracy, or the narrowness of their minds and the equal narrowness of their public support.” IfsMindHeartSelfWholeRealityPartyAcceptingSupportDemocracyEqualRacismHatredElectionBlindTeaWelfareOutcomesRefusalTea PartyDisinterest Author:Keith Olbermann
