Stuart Byrne

Famous quotes containing the words stuart and/or byrne:

    The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error.
    —John Stuart Mill (1806–1873)

    Sleep, and forget all things but one,
    Heard in each wave of sea,—
    How lonely all the years will run
    Until I rest by thee.
    —John Byrne Leicester Warren, 3rd Baron De Tabley (1835–1895)
