Additional quotes by Charles Lamb

Martin, if dirt was trumps, what hands you would hold!

Not many sounds in life, and I include all urban and all rural sounds, exceed in interest a knock at the door.

I have had playmates, I have had companions,
In my days of childhood, in my joyful school days—
All, all are gone, the old familiar faces.

I have been trying all my life to like Scotchmen, and am obliged to desist from the experiment in despair. - Charles Lamb
