I am reading Wolfe Hall, by Hilary Mantel - I must read everything she has written: brilliant stuff.
Anyway, I just came across this glorious line: Thomas Cromwell speaking with King Henry VIII, "“No ruler in the history of the world has ever been able to afford a war. They’re not affordable things."
And I wish we had a Thomas Cromwell today, who would have the courage to speak truth to power.
