Quotes
- “There comes a point when a man must refuse to answer to his leader if he is also to answer to his own conscience.”
- “We are the masters at the moment and shall be for some considerable time.”
- “Let us not foist this humbug on the world.”
- “All my moves were designed to promote the happiness and wellbeing of my family, rather than fame.”
- “I know that in my public life I fell below the standards that I had set myself... I have seen what is wrong but not done enough to put it right. I have been more critical than correct. I have had opportunities of great positions in the service of the state, but I have put them aside. I know that I have not devoted myself enough to promoting the good of others.”
- “I feel that I've had a happy life, not a very useful life, but a happy one.”
