There are great historical presumptions that from time to time the interests of the state and those of civilization is neglected.... At the private college, the sense of mission is distinguishing. It is, however, strangled by what goes under the presumptuous designation of academic freedom. it is a terrible loss, of the sense of mission. It makes the private university, sad to say, incoherent.

Haven't read any of his books (yet) but I love watching his old firing line show on youtube. Hoover institution's channel has been slowly uploading them periodically for a few years now for free. I remember his son said at his memorial service at St. Patrick's that a stack of everything he wrote would reach the spire of the Cathedral and then some.
He was a hard worker.

ME TOO!!! That's how i got into him tbqh. Sorry for the excitement as I dont know anyone else that enjoys his stuff. His debate with James Baldwin was entertaining as well as his interview with Groucho Marx.

Reminder that Buckley was CIA sent to undermine U.S. conservatism from within, making it no more than controlled opposition, by purging the Birchers from the movement and then surrendering to the neocons.
