Quote by Henry Morton Stanley | TrueQuotes

"His conduct will very soon give rise to a very lively debate; or it will justify itself and it will be very good to use; or he will fail to do so and, in this case, we will be glad to have no connection or relationship of any kind with a compromising ally."

— Henry Morton Stanley
