Letter "I" » Inns
"You may go to Carlisle's and to Almanac's too;
And I'll give you my Head if you find such a Host,
For Coffee, Tea, Chocolate, Butter, or Toast;
How he welcomes at once all the World and his Wife,
And how civil to Folks he ne'er saw in his Life."
Author: Christopher Anstey
About: Inns
"He who has not been at a tavern knows not what a paradise it is.
O holy tavern! O miraculous tavern!holy, because no carking
cares are there, nor weariness, nor pain; and miraculous, because
of the spits, which themselves turn round and round!"
Author: Pietro Aretino
About: Inns
"He had scarcely gone a short league, when Fortune, that was
conducting his affairs from good to better, discovered to him the
road, where he also espied an Inn. Sancho positively maintained
it was an Inn, and his master that it was a castle; and the
dispute lasted so long that they arrived there before it was
determined."
Author: Cervantes (Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra)
About: Inns
"Now musing o'er the changing scene
Farmers behind the tavern screen
Collect; with elbows idly press'd
On hob, reclines the corner's guest,
Reading the news to mark again
The bankrupt lists or price of grain.
Puffing the while his red-tipt pipe
He dreams o'er troubles nearly ripe,
Yet, winter's leisure to regale,
Hopes better times, and sips his ale."
Author: John Clare
About: Inns
"Along the varying road of life,
In calm content, in toil or strife,
At morn or noon, by night or day,
As time conducts him on his way,
How oft doth man, by care oppressed,
Find in an Inn a place of rest."
Author: William Combe (Coombe)
About: Inns
"Where'er his fancy bids him roam,
In ev'ry Inn he finds a home
. . . .
Will not an Inn his cares beguile,
Where on each face he sees a smile?"
Author: William Combe (Coombe)
About: Inns
"Where you have friends you should not go to inns."
Author: George Eliot (pseudonym of Mary Ann Evans Cross)
About: Inns
"There is nothing which has yet been contrived by man, by which so
much happiness is produced as by a good tavern of inn."
Author: Samuel Johnson
About: Inns
"Souls of poets dead and gone,
What Elysium have ye known,
Happy field or mossy cavern,
Choicer than the Mermaid Tavern?"
Author: John Keats
About: Inns
"The atmosphere
Breathes rest and comfort and the many chambers
Seem full of welcomes."
Author: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
