Additional quotes by Samuel Garth

Some fell by laudanum, and some by steel,
And death in ambush lay in every pill.

To die is landing on some silent shore
Where billows never break, nor tempests roar;
Ere well we feel the friendly stroke, 'tis o'er.

Harsh words, though pertinent, uncouth appear:
None please the fancy, who offend the ear.

I see the right, and I approve it too, Condemn the wrong, and yet the wrong pursue. - Samuel Garth
