Trivia Question

Who made these statements and when? These are paraphrases:

Because it's better to break bad promises than to keep them, I shall break this bad promise if I become convinced it's contrary to the public interest.
...

I originally included that part, but with that included it no longer seemed like a trivia question. Looking at it today I think my paraphrasing still left the answer a bit too obvious, maybe it would have been better to leave out or obscure a couple more details.--Percy

Actually, it's because this is the age of Google that I used paraphrases instead of quotes, and left out a couple details.--Percy
