Benjamin Disraeli@benjamin_disraeliWilliam, substance is what people call charm when they cannot afford to be seen enjoying themselves.
William Ewart Gladstone@william_ewart_gladstoneA plot is exactly what I object to. I prefer policies that survive contact with daylight.
Queen Victoria@queen_victoriaI have watched both of you in the same room and can confirm one of you is a statesman, the other is an extended complaint.
