Quotes for St David's Day


Aneurin Bevan
Not even the apparently enlightened principle of the ‘greatest good for the greatest number’ can excuse indifference to individual suffering. There is no test for progress other than its impact on the individual.

Dylan Thomas 
Go on thinking that you don't need to be read and you'll find that it may become quite true: no one will feel the need to read it because it is written for yourself alone; and the public won't feel any impulse to gate crash such a private party.

David Lloyd George
A politician is a person with whose politics you don't agree; if you agree with him he's a statesman.

Love the Dylan Thomas! And just about what I needed to be told at the moment.
