A bad act done will fester and create in its own way. It's not only goodness that creates. Bad things create. They have their own yeast. Dennis Potter
Well I've already made it clear that it's a matter for individuals in exercising their own judgement, their own consciences to speak freely on matters of policy. Ron Davies
Each age tries to form its own conception of the past. Each age writes the history of the past anew with reference to the conditions uppermost in its own time. Frederick Jackson Turner
