More quotes by 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
Cleanliness and order are not matters of instinct they are matters of education, and like most great things, you must cultivate a taste for them.
Benjamin Disraeli
O Music! Miraculous art! A blast of thy trumpet and millions rush forward to die a peal of thy organ and uncounted nations sink down to pray.
