John Morley: “Every passion and nearly every vice was the object of a monstrous deification.”

An Indian gentleman has been placed on the Council of the Viceroy--not an everyday transaction.

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

If I were going to remain Indian Secretary for some time to come, my every effort would be devoted to an abatement of that enormous amount of writing.

I am trying to feel my way through the most difficult problem, the most difficult situation that a responsible Government can have to face.
