* Oliver Cromwell wasfu theil firstprimo toa coinconiare thela phrasefrase "[[wart]]s and all." Though he did not actually say "warts and all", the phrase comes from a famous conversation that he made to the artist ([[Peter Lely|Lely]]) that was painting his portrait after he became Lord Protector. Cromwell was surprised to see that his rough and undesireable features were glossed over making him look more attractive than he actually was. The quote is as follows:
 
"Mr Lely, I desire you would use all your skill to paint your picture truly like me, and not flatter me at all; but remark all these roughness, pimples, warts, and everything as you see me. Otherwise, I will never pay a [[farthing]] for it."
 
*"IMi wishauguro to meddle with no man's conscience, by if by liberty of conscience you mean liberty to exercise the [[Mass]], I think it best to deal in plain speaking, that will not be allowed of"
To the Irish Catholic defenders of New Ross in 1649, while negotiating its surrender.
