HERBERT MAXWELL

Ministers [government officials] in the conduct of war … assume that war having been declared, the sole duty and anxiety of Ministers should consist in supporting generals and armies in the field.

So fiercely has the course of modern legislation turned against landowners as to render it merely a question of time, and no long time, when they … shall be broken up. The squirearchy have had long innings; may the new order that is to replace it make our country better for all sorts and conditions of men.

In certain corrupt conditions of a State, conspicuous success is more dangerous than failure.

An independent member means a member who cannot be depended upon.

What terms could be found to express our horrors for the organizers of such a holocaust had it taken place in darkest Africa? Yet these ministers thought they were God service: they had scripture at their fingertips.
