You are welcome to it, though I likely paraphrased an Eric Hoffer quote. Here are some more quotes from him that will help you understand the conservatives' psyche:


- Passionate hatred can give meaning and purpose to an empty life.

- The less justified a man is in claiming excellence for his own self, the more ready he is to claim all excellence for his nation, his religion, his race or his holy cause.

- It is by its promise of a sense of power that evil often attracts the weak.

- In human affairs, the best stimulus for running ahead is to have something we must run from.
