"The basis of the /Hungarian/ nationalist movement was always rather questionable. The ’national language' was a confectionery of German idiom and peasant gruntings, and was in any case used only by a minority of Hungarians."

"But behind the political rigmaroles of the Hungarian Diets* there was a more important question* that of Bohemia. The Habsburg Monarchy seems at times to have been little more than a device for diverting Czech cash to Hungarian pockets."

"It is remarkable that the Bohemians, with so much more real weight in the Monarchy*s affairs, should have been politically so ineffective* for the Hungarians — essentially parasitic — made all the running."
