“I wonder if his appetite was good?
Or, if it were, if also his digestion?
Methinks at meals some odd thoughts might intrude,
And conscience ask a curious sort of question,
About the right divine how far we should
Sell flesh and blood.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

To which embarrassed people have recourse.”

—David Lloyd George (1863–1945)
“For the sword outwears its sheath,
And the soul wears out the breast.
And the heart must pause to breathe,
And love itself have rest.”
