Additional quotes by Samuel Butler

He ne'er consider'd it, as loth
To look a gift-horse in the mouth.

The sun had long since in the lap
Of Thetis taken out his nap,
And, like a lobster boil'd, the morn
From black to red began to turn.

Ay me! what perils do environ
The man that meddles with cold iron!

Still amorous and fond and billing, Like Philip and Mary on a shilling. - Samuel Butler
