peace men rights

philosophy guiding-principles often-is
The task of the political philosopher can only be to influence public opinion, not to organize people for action.

Conservatism may often be a useful practical maxim, but it does not give us any guiding principles which can influence long-range developments. Friedrich August von Hayek
