James Bolam: Denzil Holles

Quotes 

• Denzil Holles : At last we all can sleep soundly, knowing that for once the King cannot impose a new tax on us in the morning.

  Sir Thomas Fairfax : You make it sound as if you fought the war only to save your profits, Holles!

• Oliver Cromwell : Where are the law reforms? The guarantees of basic freedoms?

  Denzil Holles : If you read it carefully you will find them. We removed the King's power to appoint judges.

  Oliver Cromwell : You do not say why. Every man has a right to fair trial and opportunity. It is a fundamental principle. If you have not the guts to write it, then let me.
