There will always be changes

anthony.trollope quotes

A quote from chapter 35 of The Duke’s Children (my copy is the new expanded edition) by Anthony Trollope. The Duke of Omnium is talking with a few other men after a small dinner party. Silverbridge, his son (known by a courtesy title), offers a thought about the House of Commons.

“I hear men say that it isn’t quite what it used to be,” said Silverbridge.

“Nothing will ever be quite what it used to be. There will always be changes.”
