Tobias Smollett
Facts are stubborn things.
Smollett quotes
Writing is all a lottery -- I have been a loser by the works of the greatest men of the age.
Smollett
Thy spirit, Independence, let me share,
Lord of the lion-heart and eagle-eye.
Thy steps I follow with my bosom bare,
Nor heed the storm that howls along the sky.




Smollett Tobias quotes
Thy fatal shafts unerring move,
I bow before thine altar, Love!
