For a man who’s 90, he looks like he’s in his late 70’s! Wow!!! Good for him

Lucid elderly intellectual men, like this guy and Sowell, are an incredible resources of wisdom.

That was so good I’m going to watch it again to make sure I didn’t miss a thing. Harvey is an amazing person. Great job with the interview as always. Thanks for making such great material available to the masses for free.

Wonderful interview. "Greatest Commandment: You shall love the Lord with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind. On this hangs all the Law and Prophets." This premise embodies our US Constitution.

Beautiful interview. What a scholar Harvey is , I’m 21 years old and his opinions on feminism and the declination of the family resonate very deeply.

Love how concise and wise he is. Wished he elaborated a bit more, though.

He must be incredibly old for an active professor. Somewhere around 90 years old. I never heard of him before, too bad for me.

Very rare to find a professor like him in a liberal university such as Harvard. Very conservative political view.

it's good to be offended, if you are never offended you are never corrected.

The first book of the Western canon I read for pure personal interest (not counting the Bible or school assignments) was Harvey's translation of Machiavelli's Discourses on Livy
