You are an Englishman, and have subsequently drawn the greatest prize in the lottery of life.

Wherever you turn your eye—except in science—an Oxford man is at the top of the tree.

Ask any man what nationality he would prefer to be, and ninety nine out of a hundred will tell you that they would prefer to be Englishmen

I have found out one thing and that is, if you have an idea, and it is a good idea, if you only stick to it you will come out all right.

Africa is still lying ready for us it is our duty to take it. It is our duty to seize every opportunity of acquiring more territory and we should keep this one idea steadily before our eyes that more territory simply means more of the Anglo-Saxon race more of the best the most human, most honorable race the world possesses.

I contend that we are the first race in the world, and that the more of the world we inhabit the better it is for the human race... If there be a God, I think that what he would like me to do is paint as much of the map of Africa British Red as possible...

Remember that you are an Englishman, and have consequently won first prize in the lottery of life.
