Anthony Trollope
Late hours, nocturnal cigars, and midnight drinkings, pleasurable though they may be, consume too quickly the free-flowing lamps of youth, and are fatal at once to the husbanded candle-ends of age.
Anthony Trollope
I ain't a bit ashamed of anything.
Anthony Trollope
My sweetheart is to me more than a coined hemisphere.
Anthony Trollope
There is such a difference between life and theory.
Anthony Trollope
The girl can look forward to little else than the chance of having a good man for her husband a good man, or if her tastes lie in that direction, a rich man.
