Dr Johnson may be the most quoted English writer, aside from Shakespeare


                                 


Take a look at this review of the Life of Samuel Johnson, that classic written in England (during the first presidential term of George Washington).

Call me a poor-man's Boswell to the towering Doc Pence, and his noble project of re-strengthening patriarchal fraternity.



"He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man." 
(Dr Johnson)
