Charles Fox
- Charles Fox: In which particular section of the speech did the message elude your Grace?
- Georgiana, The Duchess of Devonshire: Well, I have great sympathy with your sentiments in general, but fail fully to comprehend how far we - the Whig party, that is - are fully committed to the concept of freedom.
- Charles Fox: [admiring Georgiana's pregnancy] A huge belly has never been more becoming on anyone.
- Richard Brinsley Sheridan: Well, Fox, here, offers an expert opinion seeing, as he does, a giant belly every time he passes a mirror.
- Dinner guest: Excellent speech, Mr. Fox.
- Charles Fox: I think it is always easier to address a congregation of friends... particularly when those friends are drunk.
- Charles Fox: [to Georgina at the dinner table after addressing the gathering] It's always easier to address a congregation of friends... particularly when those friends are drunk.
