• I venture to claim two qualifications for the great office which I hold, which to my mind, without making invidious distinctions, is one of the most important that can be held by any Englishman; and those qualifications are that in the first place I believe in the British Empire, and in the second place I believe in the British race. I believe that the British race is the greatest of the governing races that the world has ever seen.

• La [legislación social] elevó el coste de producción; y qué puede ser más ilógico que elevar el coste de producción en el país y luego permitir que los productos de otros países que no están rodeados de ninguna legislación similar, que están libres de cualquier coste y gasto similar entren libremente en nuestro país en competencia con nuestros propios productos...
