“Party spirit enlists a man’s virtues in the cause of his vices.” Richard Whately
“Ignorance maketh most Men go into a Party, and Shame keepth them from getting out of it.” George Saville, Marquess of Halifax
“One of the troubles with political commitment is that no political party can tell the whole truth about man’s needs in society. If it could, it wouldn’t be a political party. And yet the honest man who wants to work for the improvement of his country has to belong to a party, which means—somewhat hopelessly---accepting what amounts to a merely partial truth. Only the vicious or the stupid can accord total loyalty to a party.”
Anthony Burgess
“I always voted at my party’s call,
And I never thought of thinking for myself at all.”
Sir W. S. Gilbert
H. M. S. Pinafore
