Página 39 - In the attempt to conduct the government of this world there are new elements to be considered which our predecessors had not to deal with. We have now to deal not merely with Emperors, with Princes, and with Ministers. There are the secret societies, an element which we must take into account, and which at the last moment may baffle all our arrangements — societies...

Página 257 - They were, upon the whole, from the black day when they first entered Europe, the one great anti-human specimen of humanity. Wherever they went, a broad line of blood marked the track behind them ; and, as far as their dominion reached, civilization disappeared from view.
Página 195 - I wish some learned theologian would tell me why it is that men are so much better, in all the social relations of life, under Mohammedan laws than under those of Christianity. It is unheard of for a Turk to strike a woman. He is always tender towards women, children, and dumb animals; and if a dog howl with pain in the streets of Pera, you may be quite certain it is not a Turk that has struck the blow. A Turk is truthful and scorns a lie; he is sober, temperate, and never a drunkard or a gambler;...
Página 5 - Has drench'd their wide insatiate throats with blood, To the black fount they rush, a hideous throng, With paunch distended, and with lolling tongue, Fire fills their eye, their black jaws belch the gore, And gorged with slaughter still they thirst for more.
