Toleration in religion was one of the great rights of man, and a man ought never to be deprived of what was his natural right. - Charles James Fox

I stand, said Mr. Fox, upon this great principle. I say that the people of England have a right to control the executive power, by the interference of their representatives in this House of parliament. The right honourable gentleman <nowiki>[</nowiki>William Pitt<nowiki>]</nowiki> maintains the contrary. He is the cause of our political enmity.

It behoved them, therefore, to waste not a moment unnecessarily, but to proceed with all becoming speed and all becoming diligence to restore the sovereign power and the exercise of the royal authority... In his firm opinion, his royal highness the Prince of Wales had as clear, as express a right to assume the reins of government, and exercise the power of sovereignty, during the continuance of the illness and incapacity with which it had pleased God to afflict his majesty, as in the case of his majesty's having undergone a natural and perfect demise.

The worst of revolutions is a restoration.
