Quotes
  • The trouble with traditional American conservatism is that it lacks a naturally cheerful, optimistic disposition. Not only does it lack one, it regards signs of one as evidence of unsoundness, irresponsibility
  • The enemy of liberal capitalism today is not so much socialism as nihilism.
  • What rules the world is idea, because ideas define the way reality is perceived
  • The danger facing American Jews today is not that Christians want to persecute them but that Christians want to marry them.
Irving Kristol was an American columnist, journalist, and writer who was dubbed the "godfather of neo-conservatism." As the founder, editor, and contributor to various magazines, he played an influential role in the intellectual and political culture of the last half-century; after his death he was described by The Daily Telegraph as being "perhaps the most consequential public intellectual of the latter half of the 20th century."
