“I believe the very heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism. I think conservatism is really a misnomer, just as liberalism is a misnomer for the liberals . . . The basis of conservatism is a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom, and this is a pretty general description also of what libertarianism is.”
Ronald Reagan
“For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul.”
Judy Garland
“I put my heart and my soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process.”
Vincent van Gogh
“I think we have lost sight of something of importance, something which has always been at the heart of Conservatism which is the family - functioning as a family unit with legal rights and responsibilities and being able to make its choices and let its children grow strong,”

“Home ownership lies at the very heart of the America dream, ... Affordable housing is a vital element of compassionate conservatism. It is my blessing that the dream has come true for me, and it is my responsibility to help the dream come true for others.”
Mel Martinez
“Conservatism is the blind and fear-filled worship of dead radicals”
Mark Twain
“All conservatism is based upon the idea that if you leave things alone you leave them as they are. But you do not. If you leave a thing alone you leave it to a torrent of change.”
G. K. Chesterton
