  • I am accounted by some people as a good man. How cheap that character is acquired! Pay your debts, don't borrow money, nor twist your kitten's neck off, nor disturb a congregation, etc., your business is done. I know things of myself, which would make every friend I have fly me as a plague patient.

    Charles Lamb (1884). “Little essays, sketches and characters, by C. Lamb, selected from his letters by P. Fitzgerald”
