Commonwealth quotes

I am prepared to resort to anything, to submit to anything, for the sake of the commonwealth.

We must conceive of this whole universe as one commonwealth of which both gods and men are members.

I have behind me not only the splendid traditions and the annals of more than a thousand years but the living strength and majesty of the Commonwealth and Empire; of societies old and new; of lands and races different in history and origins but all, by God’s Will, united in spirit and in aim.

It is easy enough to define what the Commonwealth is not. Indeed this is quite a popular pastime.
