Samuel Foote
Black as a cassock.Hearty as an oak.A white horse and a beautiful woman are akin, and two troublesome things to manage: the first is difficult to be kept clean; and the second, honest.Immaculate as a sheet of white paper.Plain as a pikestaff.Pouting lip like the print upon a pound of butter.Secure as in the cell of a saint.
