To send the injur'd unredress'd away,
How great soe'er th' offender, or the wrong'd
Howe'er obscure, is wicked—weak and vile:
Degrades, denies, and should dethrone a king!

Additional quotes by Tobias Smollett

Keen are the pangs
Of hapless love, and passion unapprov'd:
But where consenting wishes meet, and vows
Reciprocally breath'd, confirm the tie,
Joy rolls on joy, an inexhausted stream!
And virtue crowns the sacred scene.

True courage scorns
To vent her prowess in a storm of words;
And, to the valiant, actions speak alone.

Writing is all a lottery -- I have been a loser by the works of the greatest men of the age.
