Heroism
“The legacy of heroes is the memory of a great name and the inheritance of a great example.”
“Nurture your mind with great thoughts; to believe in the heroic makes heroes”

« Oui, je suis juif, et quand les ancêtres du Très Honorable Gentleman étaient des brutes sauvages dans une île inconnue, les miens étaient prêtres dans le Temple de Salomon. »
Benjamin Disraeli, réponse à Daniel O'Connell
Globalization
"The world is governed by very different personages from what is imagined by those who are not behind the scenes."
Benjamin Disraeli, first Prime Minister of England, in a novel he published in 1844 called Coningsby, the New Generation
"The governments of the present day have to deal not merely with other governments, with emperors, kings and ministers, but also with the secret societies which have everywhere their unscrupulous agents, and can at the last moment upset all the governments' plans."
Benjamin Disraeli, 1876
