Jonathan Swift
  • No man was ever so completely skilled in the conduct of life, as not to receive new information from age and experience.

  • Interest is the spur of the people, but glory that of great souls. Invention is the talent of youth, and judgment of age.

  • Invention is the talent of youth, as judgment is of age.

  • Under this window in stormy weather I marry this man and woman together Let none but Him who rules the thunder Put this man and woman asunder.

  • Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others.
