“The government are very keen on amassing statistics. They collect them, add them, raise them to the nth power, take the cube root and prepare wonderful diagrams. But you must never forget that every one of these figures comes in the first instance from the village watchman, who just puts down what he damn pleases.”

“It is easy to dodge our responsibilities but we cannot dodge the consequences of dodging our responsibilities.”
