Our 'neoconservatives' are neither new nor conservative, but old as Bablyon and evil as Hell.
Edward Abbey, American Author (1927-1989)
I was born in ancient times, at the end of the world, in a patriarchal Catholic and conservative family. No wonder that by age five I was a raging feminist - although the term had not reached Chile yet, so nobody knew what the heck was wrong with me.
Isabel Allende, Chilean Writer (1942-  )
People have always said - those words, 'too conservative,' is fairly relative. I'm sure that they probably said that about Thomas Jefferson and George Washington and Benjamin Franklin.
Sharron Angle, American Politician (1949-  )
And truly, when you look at the Constitution and our founding fathers and their writings, the things that made this country great, you might draw those conclusions: That they were conservative. They were fiscally conservative and socially conservative.
Sharron Angle, American Politician (1949-  )
I think when you've lost an election by 179, there's going to be a period of time after eighteen years in government when you can't do anything right, and people just kick you for the sake of it, will never admit they voted Conservative.
Jeffrey Archer, English Politician (1940-  )
The most radical revolutionary will become a conservative the day after the revolution.
Hannah Arendt, German Historian (1906-1975)
I think we have erred on the side of being too conservative so far, to tell you the truth.
Roone Arledge, American Journalist (1931-2002)
We need a strong, bold constitutional conservative who won't back down and who will fight for the values we believe in. That's what we need for our nominee, whether it is me or whether it is someone else.
Michele Bachmann, American Politician (1956-  )
So all the system was running down and collapsing. Mrs. Thatcher became the leader of the Conservative Party in February 1975, and she clearly wanted to strike out and do something different.
Kenneth Baker, English Politician (1934-  )
Some studies show that women can be better money managers than men because they tend to be more conservative and do their homework. Men tend to take more risks without the research.
Maria Bartiromo, American Journalist (1967-  )
A man who has both feet planted firmly in the air can be safely called a liberal as opposed to the conservative, who has both feet firmly planted in his mouth.
Jacques Barzun, American Educator (1907-  )
What does it mean to be a conservative? I don't even know anymore. I know what it means to me. It means to me, personal responsibility. That if I've done something wrong, its up to me to pay the price. It's up to me to make it right.
Glenn Beck, American Journalist (1964-  )
Good for you, you have a heart, you can be a liberal. Now, couple your heart with your brain, and you can be a conservative.
Glenn Beck, American Journalist (1964-  )
I am a conservative, but I am not a zombie.
Glenn Beck, American Journalist (1964-  )
When a nation's young men are conservative, its funeral bell is already rung.

My colleagues have expressed confidence in my ability to articulate our conservative message and to provide new focus to our efforts in the General Assembly.
Philip E. Berger, American Politician (1952-  )
I'd like to have a drink with Bill Maher and see how he feels. We were too conservative coming over to Fox from fX, and got ourselves off our best game.
Tom Bergeron, American Celebrity (1955-  )
One of the things that goes with getting older is that one becomes more conservative - and I emphasise that when I use the word conservative I do not mean politically.
Jeffrey Bernard, British Journalist (1932-1997)
The most conservative man in this world is the British trade unionist when you want to change him.
Ernest Bevin, British Public Servant (1881-1951)
Conservative, n: A statesman who is enamored of existing evils, as distinguished from the Liberal who wishes to replace them with others.
