Samuel Pepys (English - Writer)
February 23, 1633 - May 26, 1703
Strange, to see what delight we married people have to see these poor fools decoyed into our condition, every man and wife gazing and smiling at them.
I went out to Charing Cross to see Major General Harrison hanged, drawn, and quartered; which was done there, he looking as cheerful as any man could in that condition.
Saw a wedding in the church. It was strange to see what delight we married people have to see these poor fools decoyed into our condition.
Music and woman I cannot but give way to, whatever my business is.
Mighty proud I am that I am able to have a spare bed for my friends.
As happy a man as any in the world, for the whole world seems to smile upon me!
Thanks be to God. Since my leaving the drinking of wine, I do find myself much better, and do mind my business better, and do spend less money, and less time lost in idle company.
Strange to see how a good dinner and feasting reconciles everybody.
