Carey Began

Famous quotes containing the words carey and/or began:

    All ye poets of the age,
    All ye witlings of the stage,
    Learn your jingles to reform,
    Crop your numbers to conform.
    Let your little verses flow
    Gently, sweetly, row by row;
    Let the verse the subject fit,
    Little subject, little wit.
    Namby-Pamby is your guide,
    Albion’s joy, Hibernia’s pride.
    —Henry Carey (1693?–1743)

    All we discover has been with us since the sun began to roll; and much we discover, is not worth the discovering.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
