The greatest part of a writer's time is spent in reading, in order to write.
nan
The true measure of a man is what he would do if he knew he would never be caught.
The only end of writing is to enable the readers better to enjoy life.
He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man.
Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.
What we hope ever to do with ease, we must first learn to do with diligence.
A man may be so much of a gentleman as to be a good man.
“ A man may be so much of an animal as to be incapable of being a man.”
“ Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.”
“ The only end of writing is to enable the readers better to enjoy life, or better to endure it.”
“ He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man.”
“ What we hope ever to do with ease, we must first learn to do with diligence.”
' He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man.'
' Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.'
' What we hope ever to do with ease, we must first learn to do with diligence.'
' A man may be so much of a gentleman as to be a good man, but he cannot be a good man without being a gentleman.'
' The only end of writing is to enable the readers better to enjoy life, or better to endure it.'
No man but a blockhead ever wrote, except for money.
“ I am not a great cook; I am not a great writer; I am not a great thinker; I am not a great speaker; I am not a great anything.”
“ When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life.”
“ The true measure of a man is what he would do if he knew he would never be caught.”
“ There is nothing which has yet been contrived by man, by which so much happiness is produced as by a good tavern or inn.”
“ A man may be so much of a gentleman as to be a good man.”
“ What we hope ever to do with ease, we may learn first to do with diligence.”
“ The greatest part of a writer's time is spent in reading, in order to write.”
There is nothing which has yet been contrived by man, by which so much happiness is produced as by a good tavern.
Life is a progress from one stage to another.
The greatest part of a writer's time is spent in reading.
' When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life.'
