John Godfrey Saxe Quotes

I’m growing fonder of my staff; I’m growing dimmer in the eyes; I’m growing fainter in my laugh; I’m growing deeper in my sighs; I’m growing careless of my dress; I’m growing frugal of my gold; I’m growing wise; I’m growing – yes, – I’m growing old!

It is wise to learn; it is God-like to create.

My wonder is really boundless, That among the queer cases we try, A land-case should often be ground-less, And a water-case always be dry.
