I do not understand how an aristocracy can exist, unless it be distinguished by some quality which no other class of the community possesses.

The noble Lord (Stanley) was the Prince Rupert to the Parliamentary army--his valour did not always serve his own cause.

He thinks posterity is a pack-horse, always ready to be loaded.

I do not believe such a quality as chance exists. Every incident that happens must be a link in a chain.

When I want to read a novel, I write one.

Let the fear of a danger be a spur to prevent it; he that fears not, gives advantage to the danger.

Rothschild is the lord and master of the money markerts of the world and virtually lord and master of everything else.
