More quotes by William E. Gladstone
Commerce is the equalizer of the wealth of nations.
William E. Gladstone
Man is to be trained chiefly by studying and by knowing man.
William E. Gladstone
All the world over, I will back the masses against the classes.
William E. Gladstone
There is a limit to the work that can be got out of a human body or a human brain, and he is a wise man who wastes no energy on pursuits for which he is not fitted and he is still wiser who, from among the things that he can do well, chooses and resolut
William E. Gladstone
I venture to say that every man who is not presumably incapacitated by some consideration of personal unfitness or of political danger is morally entitled to come within the pale of the Constitution.
William E. Gladstone
The resources of civilization are not yet exhausted.
William E. Gladstone
I am certain, from experience, of the immense advantage of strict account-keeping in early life. It is just like learning the grammar then, which when once learned need not be referred to afterwards.

William E. Gladstone
Mediocrity is now, as formerly, dangerous, commonly fatal, to the poet but among even the successful writers of prose, those who rise sensibly above it are the very rarest exceptions.
William E. Gladstone
Books are delightful society. If you go into a room and find it full of books - even without taking them from the shelves they seem to speak to you, to bid you welcome.
William E. Gladstone
Justice delayed is justice denied.
William E. Gladstone
The American Revolution was a vindication of liberties inherited and possessed. It was a conservative revolution.
William E. Gladstone
Never forget that the purpose for which a man lives is the improvement of the man himself, so that he may go out of this world having, in his great sphere or his small one, done some little good for his fellow creatures and labored a little to diminish the sin and sorrow that are in the world.
William E. Gladstone
Show me the manner in which a nation or a community cares for its dead and I will measure with mathematical exactness the tender sympathies of its people, their respect for the laws of the land and their loyalty to high ideals.
William E. Gladstone
Be happy with what you have and are, be generous with both, and you won't have to hunt for happiness.
William E. Gladstone
It is the duty of government to make it difficult for people to do wrong, easy to do right.
William E. Gladstone
Swimming for his life, a man does not see much of the country through which the river winds.
William E. Gladstone
Decision by majorities is as much an expedient as lighting by gas.
William E. Gladstone
As the British Constitution is the most subtle organism which has proceeded from progressive history, so the American Constitution is the most wonderful work ever struck off at a given time by the brain and purpose of man.
