Lord BeaconsfieldThinkers

Affection is the child of ignorance; when the horizon of our experience expands, and models multiply, love and admiration imperceptibly vanish.

Christianity is completed Judaism, or it is nothing.

Courage is fire, and bullying is smoke.

Eloquence is the child of knowledge. When a mind is full, like a wholesome river, it is also clear.

Fear makes us feel our humanity.

A Great man is one who affects the mind of his generation.

Grief is the agony of an instant: the indulgence of grief the blunder of a life.

Happiness is only to be found in a recurrence to the principles of human nature; and these will prompt very simple measures.

Ignorance never settles a question.

Man is not the creature of circumstances, circumstances are the creatures of man. We are free agents, and man is more powerful than matter.
