William E. Gladstone
Nothing that is morally wrong can be politically right.
William E. Gladstone
Justice delayed is justice denied.
William E. Gladstone
Decision by majorities is as much an expedient as lighting by gas.
William E. Gladstone
The ravages of drink are greater than those of war pestilence and famine combined.
