Phineas Redux by Anthony Trollope

He, too, liked his party, and was fond of loyal men; but he had learned at last that all loyalty must be built on a basis of self-advantage. Patriotism may exist without it, but that which Erle called loyalty in politics was simply devotion to the side which a man conceives to be his side, and which he cannot leave without danger to himself. ~ Phineas Redux by Anthony Trollope Phineas Redux by Anthony Trollope
