William F. Buckley, Jr., R.I.P.

“There is an inverse relationship between reliance on the state and self-reliance.”

“Idealism is fine, but as it approaches reality, the costs become prohibitive.”

“I would like to electrocute everyone who uses the word “fair” in connection with income tax policies.”

“The academic community has in it the biggest concentration of alarmists, cranks and extremists this side of the giggle house.”

“Truth is a demure lady, much too ladylike to knock you on your head and drag you to her cave. She is there, but people must want her, and seek her out.”

“You cannot paint the “Mona Lisa” by assigning one dab each to a thousand painters.”

(Thanks, cyclops).
