British Term

Famous quotes containing the words british and/or term:

    Absolute monarchy,... is the easiest death, the true Euthanasia of the BRITISH constitution.

    David Hume (1711–1776)

    In eloquence, the great triumphs of the art are when the orator is lifted above himself; when consciously he makes himself the mere tongue of the occasion and the hour, and says what cannot but be said. Hence the term abandonment, to describe the self-surrender of the orator.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
