Famous quotes containing the word digestion:

    My dear, if Mr. Carlyle’s digestion had been stronger, there is no saying what he might have been!
    Jane Welsh Carlyle (1801–1866)

    Memory is like a purse,—if it be over-full that it cannot shut, all will drop out of it. Take heed of a gluttonous curiosity to feed on many things, lest the greediness of the appetite of thy memory spoil the digestion thereof.
    Thomas Fuller (1608–1661)
