Neil Kinnock

“Niceness is the psychological armor of the people-pleaser.”
“The indiscreet questioner - and by indiscreet questions I mean questions which it is not conceivably a man's duty either to the community or to any individual to answer - is a marauder, and there is every excuse for treating him as such.”
“Demons wait at crossroads attempting to influence our decisions.”
“You see, the strangeness of my case is that now I no longer fear the invisible, Iâ€™m terrified by reality.”

“See him, the gentle Bible beast, / With lacquered hoofs and curling mane, / His wondering journey from the East / Half done, between the rock and plain.”

“Brunei Darussalam is one of the oldest kingdoms in South East Asia.”
“You don't believe it because you don't understand," he said hoarsely. "Prosper was different. He wasn't like other people. He might have hated me, but he loved me too. In his own way. He couldn't help it; not after raising me for all those years." When no one responded â€“ when he saw nothing but expressions of disbelief on the faces around him â€“ Cadel wailed, "He did! He did! I know he did! He only wanted to wreck my life because he wasn't a part of it!" And as sympathetic hands reached out towards him from every corner of the car, Cadel began to cry like someone whose heart was breaking.”
“If you're working for a good company and you're happy there, and you're being compensated accordingly, and your work satisfies you, you should stay there.”
