ROBERT CECIL

A wise man looks upon men as he does on horses; all their comparisons of title, wealth, and place, he consider but as harness.

People look at my six days in the week to see what I mean on the seventh.

Solitude shows us what should be; society shows us what we are.

Faith makes all evil good to us, and all good better; unbelief makes all good evil, and all evil worse. Faith laughs at the shaking of the spear; unbelief trembles at the shaking of a leaf.

I was particularly awkwardly placed, without instructions and not even in close political alliance with the actual British Government.

The vast majority of the peoples of the world are against war and against aggression. If they make their wishes known and effective, war can be stopped. It all depends on whether they are willing to make the effort necessary for the purpose. For, that it will require an effort, no one who considers the history of the world on these subjects can doubt.

Virtue consisted in avoiding scandal and venereal disease.

We go about peace in a very belligerent way, don't we.

Examples is more forcible than precept. People look at my six days in the week to see what I mean on the seventh.
