Additional quotes by John Conington

Then take, good sir, your pleasure while you may;
With life so short 'twere wrong to lose a day.

Blest pair! if aught my verse avail, No day shall make your memory fail From off the heart of time.

My chief, let Fate cry on or back,
'Tis ours to follow, nothing slack:
Whate'er betide, he only cures
The stroke of Fortune who endures.

For easier 'tis to learn and recollect What moves derision than what claims respect. - John Conington
