Additional quotes by Oliver Goldsmith

By the living jingo, she was all of a muck of sweat.

They please, are pleased, they give to get esteem,
Till, seeming blest, they grow to what they seem.

A kind and gentle heart he had,
To comfort friends and foes;
The naked every day he clad
When he put on his clothes.

His best companions, innocence and health; And his best riches, ignorance of wealth. - Oliver Goldsmith
