Random Pedro II of Brazil quote

3 quotes

Politics is to me the harsh fulfilment of duty.

I swore to the Constitution, but even if I had not sworn to it, it would be to me a second religion.

I was born to consecrate myself to the languages and sciences, and, if I had to choose between occupying a political position, I would rather be a president or minister to that of an Emperor.
