FORDYCE, George Quotes
(1736-1802), Scottish physician
One meal a day is enough for a lion, and it ought to be for a man.
The majesty of God revere; fear him, and you have nothing else to fear.
When a young woman behaves to her parents in a manner particularly tender and respectful, from principle as well as nature, there is nothing good and gentle that may not be expected from her in whatever condition she is placed. Of this I am so thoroughly persuaded, that, were I to advise any friend of mine as to his choice of a wife, I know not whether my first counsel would be, "Look out for one distinguished by her attention and sweetness to her parents."
