    “He could walk, or rather turn about in his little garden, and feel more solid happiness from the flourishing of a cabbage or the growing of a turnip than was ever received from the most ostentatious show the vanity of man could possibly invent.

    —Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)

    “It was his title that killed me. I had never spoken to a lord before. Oh, me! what a fool, what a beast I have been!”
