Morley expresses his belief in the possibility of a satisfactory resolution to the Irish question through honesty and cooperation.

Is it natural effervescence, or is it deadly fermentation?
What I wish to insist upon is, not that that system was good, but that the statesman who undertook to overthrow it, should have had something to put in its place.
This is no mere case of barren wrangle and verbal recrimination.
I would use my best endeavours to make these States independent in matters of administration.
