Their attitude is to treat the EC as if it had the plague and then encourage the rest of the world to join in.”

Jacques Delors (1925) French economist and politician

On American attitudes to the Common Agricultural Policy (7 December 1990), quoted in Charles Grant, Delors - Inside the House that Jacques Built (London: Nicholas Brearley, 1994), p. 172.

““The Third Way is neither anti-state nor anti-market; it sees both sides of the old politics as a positive force for progress. It simply seeks to balance them against the virtues of mutual trust and shared obligation. It is, uniquely in the politics of our time, pro-market, pro-state and pro-civil society.””

Mark Latham (1961) Australian politician
