John Morley: “The royal authority was the only instrument that he could bring himself to use.”

My desire is thoroughly to shake up all the materials of the question.

What I endeavoured to show was that King George III., without changing his opinion of the justice of his war against the colonies, was obliged to give it up on account of a change of public opinion, and was not open to blame for so doing.

With a few exceptions, a political speech like the manna in the wilderness loses its savour on the second day.

I think any man who lays down a firm proposition that all is well, or any man who says that all is ill--either of those two men is probably wrong.
