Additional quotes by Thomas Moore

Ask a woman's advice, and, whate'er she advise, Do the very reverse and you're sure to be wise.

Go where glory waits thee,
But while fame elates thee,
Oh! still remember me!

Row, brothers, row, the stream runs fast,
The rapids are near, and the daylight's past.

When thus the heart is in a vein Of tender thought, the simplest strain Can touch it with peculiar power. - Thomas Moore
