That is equivalent to saying that, reckoning from the time of the Berlin Congress, he played a superior diplo matic and statesmanlike game for twelve years (-)For this very reason alone it is stupid to accuse me of not having recognized the greatness of Prince Bis marckIn spite of the failure of my mission I found calm judgments of the political situationThis state of things was, in itself, enough, since a Premier of such overwhelming importance, who had won for Prus sia and Germany such great political victories, dominated his Ministers completely and led them despoticallyThat was the soil in which, later, the World War ambitions of our foes found nourishment Revanche pour Sedan, combined with Revanche pour San StefanoThe words of the old General at Brest have re mained unforgettably engraved upon my memory ; they induced me to bring about my many meetings with Alexander III and Nicholas II, at which my grandfather's wish, impressed upon me on his deathbed, that I watch over our relations with Russia, has always been my guiding motive. |
