SAMUEL FOOTE
English dramatist and author
(1720 - 1777)

One who preserves all the exterior decencies of ignorance.
      - [Pretension]

He made him a hut, wherein he did put
  The carcass of Robinson Crusoe.
    O poor Robinson Crusoe!
      - Mayor of Garratt (act I, sc. I)
        [Monuments]

Born is a Cellar, . . . and living in a Garret.
      - The Author (act II, sc. 1, l. 375)
        [Ancestry]

Her face, all red and white, like the inside of a shoulder of mutton.
      - The Knights (act I) [Face]

Woman, I tell you, is a microcosm; and rightly to rule her, requires as great talents as to govern a state.
      - The Minor [Women]
