We shall go forward together. The road upwards is stony. There are upon our journey dark and dangerous valleys through which we have to make and fight our way. But it is sure and certain that if we persevere - and we shall persevere - we shall come through these dark and dangerous valleys into a sunlight broader and more genial and more lasting than mankind has ever known.

My tastes are simple. I like only the very best.

It is a fine game to play - the game of politics - and it is well worth waiting for a good hand before really plunging.

Champagne is the wine of civilization and the oil of government.

I must place on record my regret that the human race ever learned to fly.

The nation will find it very hard to look up to the leaders who are keeping their ears to the ground.

I am always ready to learn although I do not always like being taught.
