Henry Fielding
A good heart will, at all times, betray the best head in the world.
Henry Fielding
the excellence of the mental entertainment consists less in the subject than in the author's skill in well dressing it up.
Henry Fielding
He that dies before sixty, of a cold or consumption, dies, in reality, by a violent death.
