John Morley: “Gladstone was not disposed on any terms to meet the Irish demand by more coercion.”

But as I read it, as I listen to serious Indian experts with large experience, it all sounds estrangement and alienation even though it be no worse than superficial.

We do not know how to leave India, and therefore let us see if we know how to govern it.

To stint Ireland in power which might be necessary or desirable for the management of matters purely Irish, would be a great error; and if she was so stinted, the end that any such measure might contemplate could not be attained.

Turgot was one of the men to whom good government is a religion.
