Reactionary Quotations

It involves an emotional catharsis, but it must be followed by a sense of futility. Martin Luther King, Jr. The right is so reactionary it goes nowhere. Tom Metzger Reactionary: a man walking backwards with his face to the future. Aneurin Bevan By 'radical,' I understand one who goes too far; by 'conservative,' one who does not go far enough; by 'reactionary,' one who won't go at all. Woodrow Wilson The reactionary is always willing to take a progressive attitude on any issue that is dead. Theodore Roosevelt |
