Lord Curzon on Henry Labouchère
← Back to Henry Labouchère Profile
“I recall a phrase of that incorrigible cynic Labouchere, alluding to Mr. Gladstone's frequent appeals to a higher power, that he did not object to the old man always having a card up his sleeve, but he did object to his insinuating that the Almighty had placed it there.”
“Labouchere was the incurable cynic who mocked, at everybody, including himself.”
