Daily quote by David Lloyd George

• They may criticise my Government as much as they like, but as long as we were in office we prevented the Turks from going to Constantinople, the French from going into the Ruhr, and the American hand from coming into our till. Now they have all got there.
  • Remarks to Lord D'Abernon (28 March 1923), quoted in Lord D'Abernon, An Ambassador of Peace, Vol. II (1929), p. 185
