Quotations By William Temple


Age
A bird in the hand is safer thantwo overhead. All courageous animals are carnivorous, and greater courage is to be expected in a people, such as the English, whose food is strong and hearty, than in the half starved commonalty of other countries.

Health
Health is the soul that animates all the enjoyments of life, which fade and are tasteless without it.

Human
Man alone is born crying, lives complaining, and dies disappointed.

Love
The greatest pleasure of life is love.
