Sivu 484 - You well know, Gentlemen, how soon one of those stupendous masses, now reposing on their shadows in perfect stillness ; how soon, upon any call of patriotism or of necessity, it would assume the likeness of an animated thing, instinct with life and motion ; how soon it would ruffle, as it were, its swelling plumage ; how quickly it would put forth all its beauty and its bravery, collect its scattered elements of strength, and awaken its dormant thunder.
Sivu 139 - It never was, however, intended as an union for the government of the world, or for the superintendence of the internal affairs of other states.
Sivu 42 - Useful or necessary changes in legislation, and in the administration of States, ought only to emanate from the free will and the intelligent and well-weighed conviction of those whom God has rendered responsible for power.

Sivu 249 - the representations made at Madrid have been rejected, " leaves little hope of preserving peace. I have ordered the " recall of my minister. One hundred thousand Frenchmen, " commanded by a prince of my family — by him whom my " heart delights to call my son — are ready to march, invok
Sivu 84 - Commons, or it must, occasionally, take the liberty to reject them. If it uniformly affirm, it is without the shadow of authority. But to presume to reject an act of the deputies of the whole nation! — by what assumption of right could three or four hundred great proprietors set themselves against the national will ? Grant the reformers, then, what they ask, on the principles on which they ask it, and it is utterly impossible that, after such a reform, the Constitution should long consist of more...
