Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scenes in the Thirty Days War Between Greece Turkey, 1897 It is very hard to say when the English people is really moved. There are so many who are ready to be moved at anything, that for any cause, no matter how foolish, a crowd can always be gathered. But there are as many more who can be moved by nothing, so that every cause, no matter how noble, is sure of a stolid body of opposition, which boasts of its common sense and freedom from hysterical excitement. One party is called quixotic, and the other respectable; and both terms are generally used in derision, because one side is judged by its most foolish members, and the other by its most ignoble. The people being thus divided among themselves, it is usually impossible to speak of popular emotion without such qualifications as make it seem half-hearted.
