Famous quotes by Aneurin Bevan:

"He brings to the fierce struggle of politics the tepid enthusiasm of a lazy summer afternoon at a cricket match"

"Fascism is not in itself a new order of society. It is the future refusing to be born."

"He has the lucidity which is the by-product of a fundamentally sterile mind. He does not have to struggle... with the crowded pulsations of a fecund imagination. On the contrary he is almost devoid of imagination."

"It is an axiom, enforced by all the experience of the ages, that they who rule industrially will rule politically."

"No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred for the Tory Party . . . So far as I am concerned they are lower than vermin."

"This island is almost made of coal and surrounded by fish. Only an organizing genius could produce a shortage of coal and fish in Great Britain at the same time."

"The worst thing I can say about democracy is that it has tolerated the Right Honorable Gentleman for four and a half years."

"Reading is not a duty, and has consequently no business to be made disagreeable."

"The Prime Minister has an absolute genius for putting flamboyant labels on empty luggage."

"Reactionary: A man walking backwards with his face to the future."

"The Tories, every election, must have a bogy man. If you haven't got a programme, a bogy man will do."

"I know that the right kind of political leader for the Labour Party is a desiccated calculating machine."

"Reactionary: a man walking backwards with his face to the future."

"I would rather be kept alive in the efficient if cold altruism of a large hospital than expire in a gush of warm sympathy in a small one."

"Stand not too near the rich man lest he destroy thee - and not too far away lest he forget thee."

"I read the newspapers avidly. It is my one form of continuous fiction."

"This island is made mainly of coal and surrounded by fish. Only an organizing genius could produce a shortage of coal and fish at the same time."

"I have never regarded politics as the arena of morals. It is the arena of interest."

"He seems determined to make a trumpet sound like a tin whistle."

"Poor fellow, he suffers from files."
