Be happy with what you have and are, be generous with both, and you won't have to hunt for happiness.
William E. Gladstone
One example is worth a thousand arguments.
William E. Gladstone

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
Be inspired with the belief that life is a great and noble calling not a mean and groveling thing that we are to shuffle through as we can, but an elevated and lofty destiny.

William E. Gladstone

William E. Gladstone
To call a man a characteristically Oxford man is, in my opinion, to give him the highest compliment that could be paid to any human being.
William E. Gladstone
Decision by majorities is as much an expedient as lighting by gas.
William E. Gladstone
Budgets are not merely affairs of arithmetic, but in a thousand ways go to the root of prosperity of individuals, the relation of classes and the strength of kingdoms.
William E. Gladstone
It is no use for the honorable member to shake his head in the teeth of his own words.
William E. Gladstone
The oppression of a majority is detestable and odious the oppression of a minority is only by one degree less detestable and odious.
William E. Gladstone
I think that the principle of the Conservative Party is jealousy of liberty and of the people, only qualified by fear but I think the principle of the Liberal Party is trust in the people, only qualified by prudence.
William E. Gladstone
[The British constitution] presumes more boldly than any other the good sense and the good faith of those who work it.
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
I was tenaciously opposed by the governor and deputy-governor of the Bank, who had seats in parliament, and I had the City for an antagonist on almost every occasion.
William E. Gladstone
National injustice is the surest road to national downfall.
William E. Gladstone
