Opinions
Quigley stated that he was in broad agreement with the designs of the elite groups he studied, but disagreed that they should keep their activities secret, hence his publication of books about them. During his long and distinguished career, he had always regarded himself as a conservative who had steadfastly defended the liberal tradition of the West. He was an early and fierce critic of the Vietnam War and the activities of the military-industrial complex and his stature was recognised in most quarters and the praise was fulsome.
Presidential praise
One of his former students and ardent admirers Bill Clinton became US President in 1992 and recognised his debt to the academic. When he accepted the Democratic Party nomination, he mentioned Quigley by name quoting him as saying that
- "America was the greatest Nation in history because our people had always believed in two things: that tomorrow can be better than today; and, that every one of us has a personal moral responsibility to make it so."

Quigley produced Tragedy and Hope, a pioneering expose of the US deep state which sold out very quickly, after which the publishers destroyed the plates.[2] It was suppressed and very hard to find for many years.[3][4]
This book was nevertheless highly influential on an older generation of truth seekers, including John Taylor Gatto. Gatto, by his own account, spent 6 months seeking the book and after finding one in the rare book room of New York library, had it stolen before returning it some months later.

Carroll Quigley wrote the The Anglo-American Establishment, a study of anglophone deep politics. This focuses particularly on the evolution of the UK deep state about a century ago. The Milner Group lists on this website were derived from it. His information about the group was derived from an unnamed insider, whom Stanley Monteith identified as Alfred Zimmern, who left the group in 1922.
Two-party system
“The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to the doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can "throw the rascals out" at any election without leading to any profound or extreme shifts in policy. … Either party in office becomes in time corrupt, tired, unenterprising, and vigorless. Then it should be possible to replace it, every four years if necessary, by the other party, which will be none of these things but will still pursue, with new vigor, approximately the same basic policies”

The Anglo-American Establishment | “The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to the doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can "throw the rascals out" at any election without leading to any profound or extreme shifts in policy. … Either party in office becomes in time corrupt, tired, unenterprising, and vigorless. Then it should be possible to replace it, every four years if necessary, by the other party, which will be none of these things but will still pursue, with new vigor, approximately the same basic policies” | 1966 | |
Tragedy and Hope | “For the first time in its history, Western Civilization is in danger of being destroyed internally by a corrupt, criminal ruling cabal which is centered around the Rockefeller interests, which include elements from the Morgan, Brown, Rothschild, Du Pont, Harriman, Kuhn-Loeb, and other groupings as well. This junta took control of the political, financial, and cultural life of America in the first two decades of the twentieth century.” | 1966 | Tragedy and Hope |
UK/Deep state | “One wintry afternoon in February 1891, three men were engaged in earnest conversation in London. From that conversation were to flow consequences of the greatest importance to the British Empire and to the world as a whole. For these men were organizing a secret society that was for more than fifty years to be one of the most important forces in the formulation and execution of British imperial and foreign policy.” | The Anglo-American Establishment |

Document:Afterword to "Who Really Killed Chris Hani?" | Book | 29 February 2024 | Christopher Nicholson | Courts have decided that freedom of expression trumps all other rights as without it nobody, including the courts, would ever hear of breaches of other rights. So those who have attempted to suppress this book have prevented the world from discovering and prosecuting the criminals, who perpetrated the foul murders. In law we would describe them as accessories after the fact of these killings. |
