Robert Louis Stevenson Quotes
You Deal With Me Very Frankly, And I Thank You For It,' Said I. 'I Will Try On My Side To Be No Less Honest. I Believe These Deep Duties May Lie Upon Your Lordship; I Believe You May Have Laid Them On Your Conscience When You Took The Oaths Of The High Office Which You Hold. But For Me, Who Am Just A Plain Man
or Scarce A Man Yet
the Plain Duties Must Suffice. I Can Think But Of Two Things, Of A Poor Soul In The Immediate And Unjust Danger Of A Shameful Death, And Of The Cries And Tears Of His Wife That Still Tingle In My Head. I Cannot See Beyond, My Lord. It's The Way I Am Made. If The Country Has To Fall, It Has To Fall. And I Pray God, If This Is Wilful Blindness, That He May Enlighten Me Before Too Late.
