Pepys, Samuel
Quotations
Meazles, we fear, or, at least, of a
scarlett feavour
Methought very ill, or else I am grown
worse to please
Milke, which I drank to take away, my
heartburne
Mirrors which makes the room seem both
bigger and lighter
Money I have not, nor can get
Money, which sweetens all things
Montaigne is conscious that we are
looking over his shoulder
Most flat dead sermon, both for matter
and manner of delivery
Most homely widow, but young, and
pretty rich, and good natured
Mr. William Pen a Quaker again
Much discourse, but little to be
learned
Musique in the morning to call up our
new-married people
Muske Millon
My wife, coming up suddenly, did find
me embracing the girl
My wife hath something in her gizzard,
that only waits
My heart beginning to falsify in this
business
My old folly and childishnesse hangs
upon me still
My new silk suit, the first that ever I
wore in my life
My Lord, who took physic to-day and was
in his chamber
My wife will keep to one another and
let the world go hang
My wife this night troubled at my
leaving her alone so much
My wife was making of her tarts and
larding of her pullets
My head was not well with the wine that
I drank to-day
My first attempt being to learn the
multiplication-table
My intention to learn to trill
Necessary, and yet the peace is so bad
in its terms
Never laughed so in all my life. I
laughed till my head ached
Never, while he lives, truckle under
any body or any faction
Never to trust too much to any man in
the world
Never was known to keep two mistresses
in his life (Charles II.)
Never could man say worse himself nor
have worse said
New Netherlands to English rule, under
the title of New York
No Parliament can, as he says, be kept
long good
No manner of means used to quench the
fire
No pleasure--only the variety of it
No money to do it with, nor anybody to
trust us without it
No man is wise at all times
No man was ever known to lose the first
time
No man knowing what to do, whether to
sell or buy
No sense nor grammar, yet in as good
words that ever I saw
No good by taking notice of it, for the
present she forbears
Nonconformists do now preach openly in
houses
None will sell us any thing without our
personal security given
Nor would become obliged too much to
any
Nor will yield that the Papists have
any ground given them
Nor was there any pretty woman that I
did see, but my wife
Nor offer anything, but just what is
drawn out of a man
Not well, and so had no pleasure at all
with my poor wife
Not eat a bit of good meat till he has
got money to pay the men
Not the greatest wits, but the steady
man
Not when we can, but when we list
Not to be censured if their necessities
drive them to bad
Not more than I expected, nor so much
by a great deal as I ought
Not thinking them safe men to receive
such a gratuity
Not permit her begin to do so, lest
worse should follow
Nothing in the world done with true
integrity
