Сторінка 557 - I have ever hated all nations, professions, and communities ; and all my love is towards individuals — for instance, I hate the tribe of lawyers, but I love Councillor Such-a-one and Judge Such-a-one : it is so with physicians (I will not speak of my own trade), soldiers, English, Scotch, French, and the rest. But principally I hate and detest that animal called man — although I heartily love John, Peter, Thomas, and so forth.
Сторінка 557 - I have got materials towards a treatise proving the falsity of that definition animal rationale, and to show it should be only rationis capax.

Сторінка 551 - I will make over all my profits to you for the property of Gulliver's Travels ; which, I believe, will have as great a run as John Bunyan. Gulliver is a happy man, that at his age, can write such a merry work.
Сторінка 206 - William Preston, Robert Adams, junior, James Callaway, and Charles Lynch, and other faithful citizens, aided by detachments of volunteers from different parts of the state, did, by timely and effectual measures, suppress such conspiracy: And whereas the measures taken for that purpose may not be strictly...
Сторінка 557 - It is so with physicians. I will not speak of my own trade, soldiers, English, Scotch, French, and the rest.
