William Cobbett

“Men of integrity are generally pretty obstinate, in adhering to an opinion once adopted.”

“Never esteem men on account of their riches or their station. Respect goodness, find it where you may.”

“Women are a sisterhood. They make common cause in behalf of the sex; and, indeed, this is natural enough, when we consider the vast power that the law gives us over them.”

“To live well, to enjoy all things that make life pleasant, is the right of every man who constantly uses his strength judiciously and lawfully.”

“I defy you to agitate any fellow with a full stomach.”
