Light Mild

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or mild:

    O he did whistle and she did sing,
    And all the bells on earth did ring

    On Christmas Day in the morning.

    I have observed, that a Reader seldom peruses a Book with Pleasure, ‘till he knows whether the Writer of it be a black or a fair Man, of a mild or cholerick Disposition, Married or a Batchelor, with other Particulars of the like nature, that conduce very much to the right understanding of an Author.
    Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
