More quotes by Benjamin Disraeli
The English nation is never so great as in adversity.
Benjamin Disraeli
Sorry only counts for that which it cannot alter.
Benjamin Disraeli
Circumstances are beyond human control, but our conduct is in our own power.
Benjamin Disraeli
I have lived long enough to know that the evening glow of love has its own riches and splendour.
Benjamin Disraeli
I look upon parliamentary government as the noblest government in the world, and certainly one most suited to England. But without the discipline of political connection, animated by the principle of private honor, I feel certain that a popular assembly would sink before the power or the corruption of a minister.
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.
Benjamin Disraeli

Benjamin Disraeli
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.
Benjamin Disraeli
I was told that the privileged and the people formed two nations.
Benjamin Disraeli
The Youth of a Nation are the trustees of posterity.
Benjamin Disraeli
All must respect those who respect themselves.
Benjamin Disraeli
What we call the heart is a nervous sensation, like shyness, which gradually disappears in society. It is fervent in the nursery, strong in the domestic circle, tumultuous at school.
Benjamin Disraeli
He who gains time gains everything.
Benjamin Disraeli
Despair is the conclusion of fools.
Benjamin Disraeli
When men are pure, laws are useless when men are corrupt, laws are broken.
Benjamin Disraeli
A sophisticated rhetorician, inebriated with the exuberance of his own verbosity.
Benjamin Disraeli
To be conscious that you are ignorant of the facts is a great step to knowledge.
Benjamin Disraeli
Candor is the brightest gem of criticism.
Benjamin Disraeli
Though I sit down now, the time will come whenyou will hear me.
Benjamin Disraeli
The choicest pleasures of life lie within the ring of moderation.
Benjamin Disraeli
