Other quotes by Oliver Cromwell

He who stops being better stops being good.

The State, in choosing men to serve it, takes no notice of their opinions. If they be willing faithfully to serve it, that satisfies.

We are Englishmen; that is one good fact.

I would have been glad to have lived under my wood side, and to have kept a flock of sheep, rather than to have undertaken this government.

I had rather have a plain, russet-coated Captain, that knows what he fights for, and loves what he knows, than that which you call a Gentle-man and is nothing else.
