Quotes
- “This Englishwoman is so refinedShe has no bosom and no behind.”
- “Nobody heard him, the dead man, But still he lay moaning:I was much further out than you thoughtAnd not waving but drowning.”
- “So I fancy my Muse says, when I wish to die,Oh no, Oh no, we are not yet friends enough,And Virtue also says:We are not yet friends enough.”
- “All things pass Love and mankind is grass.”
- “I wish I was more cheerful, it is more pleasant,Also it is a duty, we should smile as well as submittingTo the purpose of One Above who is experimentingWith various mixtures of human character which goes best,All is interesting for him it is exciting, but not for us.There I go again. Smile, smile, and get some work to doThen you will be practically unconscious without positively having to go.”
- “Was he married, did he tryTo support as he grew less fond of themWife and family?”
