More quotes by Henry Fielding
Good-humor will even go so far as often to supply the lack of wit.
Henry Fielding
The life of a coquette is one constant lie and the only rule by which you can form any correct judgment of them is that they are never what they seem.
Henry Fielding
Heroes, notwithstanding the high ideas which, by the means of flatterers, they may entertain of themselves, or the world may conceive of them, have certainly more of mortal than divine about them.
Henry Fielding
To the composition of novels and romances, nothing is necessary but paper, pens, and ink, with the manual capacity of using them.
Henry Fielding
Wicked companions invite us to hell.
Henry Fielding
Thirst teaches all animals to drink, but drunkenness belongs only to man.
Henry Fielding
And here, I believe, the wit is generally misunderstood. In reality, it lies in desiring another to kiss your a-- for having just before threatened to kick his for I have observed very accurately, that no one ever desires you to kick that which belongs to himself, nor offers to kiss this part in another.
Henry Fielding
Success is a fruit of slow growth.
Henry Fielding
A good heart will, at all times, betray the best head in the world.
Henry Fielding
Money is the fruit of evil, as often as the root of it.
Henry Fielding
Perhaps the summary of good-breeding may be reduced to this rule. Behave unto all men as you would they should behave unto you. This will most certainly oblige us to treat all mankind with the utmost civility and respect, there being nothing that we desire more than to be treated so by them.
Henry Fielding
With the latitude of unbounded scurrility, it is easy enough to attain the character of a wit, especially when it is considered how wonderfully pleasant it is to the generality of the public to see the folly of their acquaintance exposed by a third person.
Henry Fielding
Commend a fool for his wit, or a rogue for his honesty and he will receive you into his favour.
Henry Fielding
A lottery is a taxation on all of the fools in creation.
Henry Fielding
Fashion is the science of appearance, and it inspires one with the desire to seem rather than to be.
Henry Fielding
The prudence of the best heads is often defeated by tenderness of the best hearts.
Henry Fielding
LOVE: A word properly applied to our delight in particular kinds of food sometimes metaphorically spoken of the favorite objects of all our appetites.
Henry Fielding
Riches without charity are nothing worth. They are a blessing only to him who makes them a blessing to others.
Henry Fielding
When children are doing nothing, they are doing mischief.
Henry Fielding
As it often happens that the best men are but little known, and consequently cannot extend the usefulness of their examples a great way, the biographer is of great utility, as, by communicating such valuable patterns to the world, he may perhaps do a more extensive service to mankind than the person whose life originally afforded the pattern.
