Anthony Trollope
Though they were Liberals they were not democrats nor yet infidels.
Anthony Trollope
A man's mind will very gradually refuse to make itself up until it is driven and compelled by emergency.
Anthony Trollope
Cham is the only thing to screw one up when one is down a peg.
Anthony Trollope
Oxford is the most dangerous place to which a young man can be sent.
Anthony Trollope
It's dogged as does it. It ain't thinking about it.
Anthony Trollope
