What farmers require is, that the prices should be moderate, and the markets steady and for this reason I did, in 1826, 1827, and 1828, take the course which I would now recommend to the House.

Land, in England, is valuable, because we have highly-paid artisans to consume the produce on the spot.

I see no reason for giving the capital employed in agriculture greater protection than the capital vested in other branches of trade, manufacture, or commerce.

Our people are unemployed and anxious to work for the food which foreigners can give us.

Fortunately for England, all her imports are raw materials.

If the corn laws were altered, the British artisan might again be able to subsist by twelve hours' labour, a most desirable event.

It's so cool to get to talk to fans, to find out where they're from and why they bought the records.

When you move like a jellyfish, rhythm is nothing. You go with the flow. You don't stop.

I don't want to be made pacified or made comfortable. I like stuff that gets your adrenaline going.

One thing I have learned is, if people tell you they had a "frank" discussion with someone, it is usually code for a yelling match with clenched fists.
