«Each honest calling, each walk of life, has its own elite, its own aristocracy based on excellence of performance.»
«Innovation is the whim of an elite before it becomes a need of the public.»
«Much of what passes for quality on British television is no more than a reflection of the narrow elite which controls it and has always thought that its tastes were synonymous with quality.»
«I'm an enemy of what I call 'computer theology.' There's a class conflict out there. There's a techno-elite that lives in a different world.»
«Politicians fascinate because they constitute such a paradox; they are an elite that accomplishes mediocrity for the public good.»
«The principle feature of American liberalism is sanctimoniousness. By loudly denouncing all bad things -- war and hunger and date rape -- liberals testify to their own terrific goodness. More important, they promote themselves to membership in a self-selecting elite of those who care deeply about such things. It's a kind of natural aristocracy, and the wonderful thing about this aristocracy is that you don't have to be brave, smart, strong or even lucky to join it, you just have to be liberal.»
