Letter "D" » demagogue
«The sure foundations of the state are laid in knowledge, not in ignorance; and every sneer at education, at culture, at book learning, which is the recorded wisdom of the experience of mankind, is the demagogue's sneer at intelligent liberty, inviting national degeneracy and ruin.»
«It's political Daddyism and it's as old as demagogues and despotism.»
«The American doctrinaire is the converse of the American demagogue, and, in this way, is scarcely less injurious to the public. The first deals in poetry, the last in cant. He is as much a visionary on one side, as the extreme theoretical democrat is a visionary on the other.»
«If a poet has any obligation toward society, it is to write well. Being in the minority, he has no other choice. Failing this duty, he sinks into oblivion. Society, on the other hand, has no obligation toward the poet. A majority by definition, society thinks of itself as having other options than reading verses, no matter how well written. Its failure to do so results in its sinking to that level of locution at which society falls easy prey to a demagogue or a tyrant. This is society's own equivalent of oblivion.»
«The demagogue is one who preaches doctrines he knows to be untrue to men he knows to be idiots»
«Actually we are a vulgar, pushing mob whose passions are easily mobilized by demagogues, newspaper men, religious quacks, agitators and such like. To call this a society of free peoples is blasphemous. What have we to offer the world besides the superabundant loot which we recklessly plunder from the earth under the maniacal delusion that this insane activity represents progress and enlightenment?»
«The secret of the demagogue is to make himself as stupid as his audience so that they believe they are as clever as he»
«Whiskey is carried into committee rooms in demijohns and carried out in demagogues.»
«Better the rule of One, whom all obey, than to let clamorous demagogues betray our freedom with the kiss of anarchy.»
«In every age the vilest specimens of human nature are to be found among demagogues.»
