Thomas Fuller(1608 – 1661) An English churchman, historian, and scholar. He is now remembered for his writings, particularly his "Worthies of England", published after his death. He was a prolific author, and one of the first English writers able to live by his pen (and his many patrons). A good friend is my nearest relation. A good garden may have some weeds. A good horse should be seldom spurred. A lie has no leg, but a scandal has wings. A little skill in antiquity inclines a man to Popery. A man in passion rides a horse that runs away with him. A man is not good or bad for one action. A man's best fortune, or his worst, is his wife. Bad excuses are worse than none. Be the business never so painful, you may have it done for money. |
