When a stupid man is doing something he is ashamed of, he always declares that it is his duty.
From George Bernard Shaw
Life levels all men. Death reveals the eminent.
I'm an atheist and I thank God for it.
In a battle all you need to make you fight is a little hot blood and the knowledge that it's more dangerous to lose than to win.
Find enough clever things to say, and you're a Prime Minister; write them down and you're a Shakespeare.
An election is a moral horror, as bad as a battle except for the blood; a mud bath for every soul concerned in it.
Nothing is ever done in this world until men are prepared to kill one another if it is not done.
The British soldier can stand up to anything except the British War Office.
An index is a great leveller.
A man never tells you anything until you contradict him.
