Additional quotes by Oliver Goldsmith

Through torrid tracts with fainting steps they go,
Where wild Altama murmurs to their woe.

The first blow is half the battle.

The hawthorn bush, with seats beneath the shade,
For talking age and whispering lovers made.

A flattering painter, who made it his care To draw men as they ought to be, not as they are. - Oliver Goldsmith
