Rhetoric and Respectability: Conservatives and the Problem of Language, by M. E. Bradford
"It is an unavoidable truth of the present political scene that, when ultimate terms [...] are invoked in debate over a specific issue, conservatives who worry about the craft of governing are often paralyzed with the fear of being disreputable. Forgetting their obligations to defend the inherited way of our culture, to oppose what threatens our security against an invader, our social peace, or economic stability, they are reluctant to forfeit the legitimacy of policies for the present - policies to which their reputation will attach - which they have in mind by offending against what they concede to be sacrosanct boundaries. Their primary nightmare is that of being accused of bigotry..."

"The fervour of the whig historian very often comes from what is really the transference into the past of an enthusiasm for something in the present, an enthusiasm for democracy or freedom of thought or the liberal tradition. But the true historical fervour is the love of the past for the sake of the past. It is the fervour that was awakened in Gibbon and Gregorovius by the sight of the ruins of ancient Rome."

"The religion that is about to be superseded is orthodox Christianity. ... The new doctrine that is replacing it is the doctrine of an amiable and understandable God. We wanted a God who wouldn't hurt us; who would let us understand him; who would agree to scrap all the wicked thunderbolts in his armament."
No believer would consult Ransom for dogma.

COPS
cops-and-their-art,-by-h.-l.-mencken
"The rule almost everywhere in the country is that a recruit for the force must start at the bottom... This is a good way, perhaps, to train competent night watchmen and traffic regulators, but certainly it is an idiotic way to train detectives. The young man with intelligence enough to be a good detective simply refuses to waste the best years of his youth tagging automobiles parked in the wrong place, and stealing peanuts."

Chapter 3 of The Rise and Fall of the Plantation South
"Certainly, the development of New England's colonies was distinctly different from the southern experience. New England was fast becoming a land of thrifty merchants, shipmasters, and bankers, inspired by the idea of a divine mission... but, in the meantime, often terribly arrogant, as is usual with righteous men, whose arrogance goes hand in hand with humility.
In the South, Renaissance 'gentlemen' believed in a strong individuality and defied adverse fortune by personal virtue. Habitual seigneurs of large land-holdings, without any strong religious discipline, they were fond of good reading, leisure, hunting, and horsemanship. With almost no banking, scarce shipping, and no capitalist faith in predestination, there was little trade outside the selling of their tobacco crops..."
