" Sir Samuel Romilly, William Wilberforce, lord Dudley, - l'Angleterre de ces derniers temps a produit des caractères plus forts et plus grands, - nuls qui soient plus aimables.
C'étaient, comme le dit excellemment le poète ancien, des âmes blanches (non animi candidiores) dont l'essor traversa l'orage et la foudre. Elles sortirent du nuage les ailes brûlées. Ce furent trois victimes. L'homme de loi donna sa vie, l'homme de lettres sa raison, l'homme de piété ne donna que sa fortune. Romilly mourut de sa propre main, Wilberforce mourut pauvre, et Dudley mourut fou.
L'étude de ces trois personnages contemporains offre non-seulement un intérêt doux et vif, mais une leçon puissante. Ce ne sont pas des meneurs d'hommes; ils n'ont ni les qualités ni les vices de ce métier nécessaire. Ils ne mettent pas la main sur les grandes roues de la politique; mais le feu et la fumée les environnent et quelquefois les souillent, l'engrenage les emporte et les anéantit. Au milieu d'une civilisation aussi brûlante et aussi active que le fut celle de l'Angleterre entre les années 1780 et 1815, il faut voir ces délicates vertus et ces intelligences exquises jouer leur rôle, prendre leur place et marquer leur passage..."
