Quotes by Nesta H. Webster (?)

“Equality has always been the chimera of republics and the bait that ambition offers to vanity. But this levelling down is all the more impossible in a vast monarchy, and in attempting to abolish everything it seems to me that we should go further than the nation expects, and further than it wishes.” “ True,” said Chamfort, “ but does the nation know what it wishes ? One can make it wish, and one can make it say what it has never thought . . . the nation is a great herd that only thinks of browsing, and with good sheepdogs the shepherds can lead it as they please.”
― Nesta H. Webster, The French Revolution

“Throughout the history of our country subversive spirits have from time to time arisen to advocate “ equality ” and the levelling of all ranks to an indifferent public.”
― Nesta H. Webster, The French Revolution
