More From Jonathan Swift
- "I never saw, heard, nor read, that the clergy were beloved in any nation where Christianity was the religion of the country. Nothing can render them popular, but some degree of persecution."
- "The power of fortune is confessed only by the miserable, for the happy impute all their success to prudence or merit."
- "Interest is the spur of the people, but glory that of great souls. Invention is the talent of youth, and judgment of age."
