George Meredith
Into the breast that gives the rose,
Shall I with shuddering fall?
Meredith quotes
More brain, O Lord, more brain! or we shall mar
Utterly this fair garden we might win.
Meredith
She [Comedy] it is who proposes the correcting of pretentiousness, of inflation, of dulness, and of the vestiges of rawness and grossness to be found among us. She is the ultimate civilizer, the polisher, a sweet cook.
