But you say you are conservative - eminently conservative - while we are revolutionary, destructive, or something of the sort. What is conservatism? Is it not adherence to the old and tried, against the new and untried?

  • -- George Haven Putnam 乔治黑文普特南

但你说你是保守的——非常保守——而我们是革命性的、破坏性的，或诸如此类的东西。保守主义是什么?它不是坚持旧的和尝试过的，反对新的和未经尝试的吗?
