Quotations from the PG Collected Works of Gilbert Parker
Parker, Gilbert
Canadian literature
And I was very lucky--worse luck!
Anny man as is a man has to have one vice
God help the man that's afraid of his own wife!
He saw what he wished to see, which is the way of man
Her moral standard had not a multitude of delicate punctilios
Law's delays outlasted even the memory of the crime committed
Searchers after excuses for ungoverned instincts and acts
Sensitive souls, however, are not so many as to crowd each other
She looked too gay to be good
Telling the unnecessary truth
They had seen the world through the bottom of a tumbler
What isn't never was to those that never knew And I was very lucky--worse luck!

WILD YOUTH, by Parker, Complete [GP118][gp11810.txt]6191
Highsterics, they call it
World was only the size of four walls to a sick person
NO DEFENSE, by G. Parker, v1 [GP119][gp11910.txt]6192
Beginning of a lifetime of experience, comedy, and tragedy
Wit is always at the elbow of want
NO DEFENSE, by G. Parker, v3 [GP121][gp12110.txt]6194
Without the money brains seldom win alone

CARNAC'S FOLLY, by G. Parker, v1 [GP123][gp12310.txt]6196
All genius is at once a blessing or a curse
Do what you feel you've got to do, and never mind what happens
Had got unreasonably old
How many sons have ever added to their father's fame?
Never give up your soul to things only, keep it for people
We do what we forbid ourselves to do
We suffer the shames we damn in others
CARNAC'S FOLLY, by G. Parker, v3 [GP125][gp12510.txt]6198
