7835 Sir William Shwenk Gilbert 1836-1911 John Bartlett

 
NUMBER:7835
AUTHOR:Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
QUOTATION:Life’s a pudding full of plums;
Care’s a canker that benumbs,
Wherefore waste our elocution
On impossible solution?
Life’s a pleasant institution,
Let us take it as it comes!
