Additional quotes by Oliver Goldsmith

Sweet Auburn! loveliest village of the plain.

In my time, the follies of the town crept slowly among us, but now they travel faster than a stagecoach.

And, ev'n while fashion's brightest arts decoy,
The heart distrusting asks, if this be joy.

For just experience tells; in every soil, That those that think must govern those that toil. - Oliver Goldsmith
