Additional quotes by W. S. Gilbert

The idiot who praises, with enthusiastic tone,
All centuries but this and every country but his own.

Yes, but you don't go!

Oh, I am a cook and a captain bold
And the mate of the Nancy brig,
And a bo'sun tight and a midshipmite
And the crew of the captain's gig.
