I am, Sir, a brother of the angle.
There are offences given and offences not given but taken.
You will find angling to be like the virtue of humanity, which has a calmness of spirit and a world of blessing attending upon it.
That which is everybody's business is nobody's business.
This dish of meat is too good for any but anglers, or very honest men.
Let me tell you that every misery I miss is a new blessing. [Not only be grateful for the good that you have but also for the bad you don't!]
