 Sir, it is not so much to be lamented that Old England is lost, as that the Scotch have found it.

 Sir, that all who are happy, are equally happy, is not true. A peasant and a philosopher may be equally satisfied, but not equally happy. Happiness consists in the multiplicity of agreeable consciousness.

 Sir, the noblest prospect that a Scotchman ever sees, is the high road that leads him to London.

 Sir, there is no settling the point of precedency between a louse and a flea

 Sir, they are a race of convicts, and ought to be thankful for anything we allow them short of hanging.

 Sir, we are a nest of singing birds

 Sir, you are giving a reason for it, but that will not make it right

 Sir, you have but two topics, yourself and me. I am sick of both.

 Slander is the revenge of a coward, and dissimulation of his defense.

 Slavery is now no where more patiently endured, than in countries once inhabited by the zealots of liberty

 So many objections may be made to everything, that nothing can overcome them but the necessity of doing something.
