It is the age that forms the man, not the man that forms the age.
Thomas B. Macaulay
We hardly know an instance of the strength and weakness of human nature so striking and so grotesque as the character of this haughty, vigilant, resolute, sagacious blue-stocking, half Mithridates and half Trissotin, bearing up against a world in arms, with an ounce of poison in one pocket and a quire of bad verses in the other.
Thomas B. Macaulay

Thomas B. Macaulay

Thomas B. Macaulay
Turn where we may, within, around, the voice of great events is proclaiming to us, Reform, that you may preserve!
Thomas B. Macaulay

Thomas B. Macaulay
Language is the machine of the poet.
Thomas B. Macaulay
