Additional quotes by Oliver Goldsmith

Baw! Damme, but I'll fight you both, one after the other!
With baskets.

Vain, very vain, my weary search to find
That bliss which only centers in the mind.

Hope, like the gleaming taper's light,
Adorns and cheers our way;
And still, as darker grows the night,
Emits a brighter ray.

How happy he who crowns in shades like these, A youth of labour with an age of ease. - Oliver Goldsmith
