22 April: Henry Fielding

The writer Henry Fielding, as born on this date in 1707 - here are 10 quotes:

  1. Love and scandal are the best sweeteners of tea.
  2. If you make money your god, it will plague you like the devil.
  3. Where the law ends tyranny begins.
  4. Fashion is the science of appearance, and it inspires one with the desire to seem rather than to be.
  5. Adversity is the trial of principle. Without it a man hardly knows whether he is honest or not.
  6. When children are doing nothing, they are doing mischief.
  7. The slander of some people is as great a recommendation as the praise of others.
  8. Wine is a turncoat; first a friend and then an enemy.
  9. Tea! The panacea for everything from weariness to a cold to a murder.
  10. Money is the fruit of evil, as often as the root of it.
