For a couple of decades now, I have put out a list of the best and most obnoxious quotes of the year. The most obnoxious quotes always get much more attention for understandable reasons, but that’s just how it is these days, isn’t it? The most outrageous, blood pressure-raising, anger-producing events get all the eyeballs, and the real news, brilliant insights, and uplifting sentiments tend to get ignored. Well today, we’re going to be giving those “best of” quotes the respect they deserve.

Theoretically, liberalism is an ideology with a set of underlying principles and all of us could name some of the things liberals are SUPPOSED TO support. However, as a practical matter, liberalism has turned into something closer to a poorly thought-out religion or even a sort of social game that revolves around acquiring power and status with other liberals.

Although he apparently didn’t use the word “tariff,” Donald Trump has been publicly making comments that implied he supported tariffs as far back as the 1980s. When he ran for president the first time, he promised to put tariffs in place and did so on China, Mexico, Canada, and the EU among others. The results of his tariffs seemed mixed, but Trump promised to try again in his second term, and he has. Like a lot of things Trump does, his tariff policy has been a bit chaotic.

New York Assemblyman, Zohran Mamdani, is a socialist from Uganda running for Mayor of New York City. It’s early, but he’s currently in 2nd place behind Andrew Cuomo. He has suggested some ideas that have been tried in other (failing) countries, but that have never caught on here. He wants to “freeze the rent” and have the government run the supermarkets.

First of all, there’s nothing wrong with being poor. My dad grew up poor. I was poor into my thirties. I have family and friends who either have been or still are poor. I don’t look down on anyone for being poor and I don’t think less of anyone for being poor, other than I’m not taking any stock tips from them.

G.K. Chesterton was one of the best writers, thinkers, intellectuals, and promoters of Christianity of the last century. As you’ll see from these quotes, he truly had a great mind. 25) "Being a success at work is not worth it if it means being a failure at home."24) "I don't need a church to tell me I'm wrong where I already know I'm wrong; I need a church to tell me I'm wrong where I think I'm right."23) "The reformer is always right about what's wrong.

In the real world, socialism is inferior to capitalism in almost every way that matters. It leads to lower standards of living, higher taxes, less freedom, more censorship, endless bureaucracy and laws, a smaller economy, less money to go around, and an environment where being well-connected to the right people in the government means more than merit. It’s not a pretty picture. So, how does socialism appeal to people if all of that’s true?

If you wanted to Harry Potter one of your enemies, “May you live an extraordinarily comfortable life” would be a great curse. Granted, it doesn’t sound as terrible as, “May your nether regions be perpetually itchy” or “May you become obsessed with dressing up like the other sex,” but it’s still far worse than most people would think. Once you become comfortable enough, you become unable to bear hardships, lazy, unaccomplished and you stop putting in effort.
