Tony Benn

"All war represents a failure of diplomacy."

"A faith is something you die for, a doctrine is something you kill for. There is all the difference in the world."

"We are not just here to manage capitalism but to change society and to define its finer values."

"It's the same each time with progress. First they ignore you, then they say you're mad, then dangerous, then there's a pause and then you can't find anyone who disagrees with you."
