‘Tis strange, but true; for truth is always strange, –
Stranger than fiction.
~Lord Byron, Don Juan, Canto XIV, stanza 101

 

Today’s Quotes of the Day from Rime of the Ancient Mariner:

“He prayeth best who loveth best All things both great and small; For the dear God who loveth us, He made and loveth all.” —  Samuel Taylor Coleridge

from Coleridge’s Rime of the Ancient Mariner

Farewell, farewell ! but this I tell
To thee, thou Wedding-Guest !
He prayeth well, who loveth well
Both man and bird and beast.

He prayeth best, who loveth best
All things both great and small ;
For the dear God who loveth us,
He made and loveth all.

The Mariner, whose eye is bright,
Whose beard with age is hoar,
Is gone : and now the Wedding-Guest
Turned from the bridegroom’s door.

He went like one that hath been stunned,
And is of sense forlorn :
A sadder and a wiser man,
He rose the morrow morn.

Here’s a quote from the essay, “A Modest Proposal”:

”I have been assured by a very knowing American of my acquaintance in London, that a young healthy child well nursed is at a year old a most delicious, nourishing, and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled …”
