Charles Lamb

I mean your borrowers of books - those mutilators of collections, spoilers of the symmetry of shelves, and creators of odd volumes.

There is nothing so nice as doing good by stealth and being found out by accident.

Lawyers, I suppose, were children once.

I am determined that my children shall be brought up in their father's religion, if they can find out what it is.

'Tis the privilege of friendship to talk nonsense, and have her nonsense respected.

Lawers, I suppose, were children once.

My motto is: Contented with little, yet wishing for more.

Nothing to me is more distasteful than that entire complacency and satisfaction which beam in the countenances of a newly married couple.
