Additional quotes by Oliver Goldsmith

And in that town a dog was found,
As many dogs there be,
Both mongrel, puppy, whelp, and hound,
And curs of low degree.

In my time, the follies of the town crept slowly among us, but now they travel faster than a stagecoach.

Careless their merits or their faults to scan,
His pity gave ere charity began.
Thus to relieve the wretched was his pride,
And e'en his failings leaned to Virtue's side.
