Two kinds of men generally best succeed in political life; men of no principle, but of great talent; and men of no talent, but of one principle - that of obedience to their superiors.
From Wendell Phillips
Aristocracy is always cruel.
Responsibility educates.
Agitation is the atmosphere of the brains.
Exigencies create the necessary ability to meet and conquer them.
Every step of progress the world has made has been from scaffold to scaffold, and from stake to stake.
