Roger Scruton
“In its 'totalising' vision the left fails to distinguish civil society from the state, and fails to understand that the ends of life arise from our free associations and not from the coercive discipline of an egalitarian elite.”
Roger Scruton

T.S. Eliot
“It [The Great Gatsby] has interested and excited me more than any new novel I have seen, either English or American, for a number of years....it seems to me to be the first step that American fiction has taken since Henry James.”
T. S. Eliot

Paul Kengor
“In the end, the actions of such liberals have the effect---again unwittingly---of continuing to cover for the goals of the extreme Left. Yet again, the soft Left is helping to conceal the hard Left, whether it realizes it or not.”
Paul Kengor, Dupes: How America's Adversaries Have Manipulated Progressives for a Century

F. Scott Fitzgerald
“Like all men who are fundamentally of the group, of the herd, he was incapable of taking a strong stand with the inevitable loneliness that it implied.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald

Roger Scruton
“While exorting us to judge other cultures in their own terms, he [Said] asks us to judge Western culture from a point of view outside---to set it against alternatives, and to judge it adversely, as ethnocentric and even racist.”
Roger Scruton, Fools, Frauds and Firebrands: Thinkers of the New Left
