Justice Macaulay

Famous quotes containing the words justice and/or macaulay:

    ...I feel anxious for the fate of our monarchy, or democracy, or whatever is to take place.

Great difficulties may be surmounted by patience and perseverance.

    Nothing is so galling to a people not broken in from the birth as a paternal, or in other words a meddling government, a government which tells them what to read and say and eat and drink and wear.
