?Queen Victoria was like a great paperweight that for half a century sat upon men's minds and when she was removed their ideas began to blow all over the place haphazardly.? - H.G. Wells
I know he said it but I don't know where! >_< I mean, I'd need an exact source, to boot, but right now I don't even know where to look! *whimpers*
It's in a book (an anthology) by Vansittart, one of my favorite quotes... Look for a book titled "Voices 1870-1914" if you have the weekend, I'll for it, I remember that quote. The spurce should be in the book.
Oh please please please! If you can find the exact source for me I will love you forever! *rubs against your legs like a cat* I have no way of finding the source myself as it is now! *whines* I will look for what you said, but I doubt I can find the exact bibliographical location I need (meaning the pages too). *sobs*
If all else fails I have to make up the page... *blushes*
