Benjamin Disraeli
  • Two nations between whom there is no intercourse and no sympathy who are as ignorant of each other's habits, thoughts, and feelings, as if they were dwellers in different zones, or inhabitants of different planets. The rich and the poor.

  • Youth is the trustee of prosperity.

  • A man may speak very well in the House of Commons, and fail very completely in the House of Lords. There are two distinct styles requisite: I intend, in the course of my career, if I have time, to give a specimen of both.

  • Time is precious, but truth is more precious than time.

  • There is no waste of time in life like that of making explanations.
