More from Charles James Fox

  1. The worst of revolutions is a restoration.
  2. How much the greatest event it is that ever happened in the world! and how much the best!
  3. All political power is a trust.
  4. He that is conscious of guilt cannot bear the innocence of others: So they will try to reduce all others to their own level.
