William E. Gladstone
The resources of civilization are not yet exhausted.
William E. Gladstone
If Germany is to become a colonizing power, all I say is, God speed her! She becomes our ally and partner in the execution of the great purposes of Providence for the advantage of mankind.
William E. Gladstone
To serve Armenia is to serve civilization.
William E. Gladstone
For works of the mind really great there is no old age, no decrepitude. It is inconceivable that a time should come when Homer, Dante, Shakespeare, should not ring in the ears of civilized man.
William E. Gladstone
Be thorough in all you do and remember that although ignorance often may be innocent, pretension is always despicable.
William E. Gladstone
