Who said “Aristocracy is always cruel.”?

“There is a natural aristocracy among men. The grounds of this are virtue and talents.”

“Those comfortably padded lunatic asylums which are known, euphemistically, as the stately homes of England.”

“Actual aristocracy cannot be abolished by any law: all the law can do is decree how it is to be imparted and who is to acquire it.”

“What is the use of your pedigrees?”

“Lords are lordliest in their wine.”

“Revolutions never go backward.”

“One on God's side is a majority.”

“Revolutions are not made, they come.”

“What the Puritans gave the world was not thought, but action.”

“What gunpowder did for war the printing press has done for the mind.”

“What is defeat? Nothing but education. Nothing but the first step to something better.”
