Excerpt from The Prompter: A Commentary on Common Sayings Which Are Full of Common Sense, the Best Sense in the World
But the queerest of all notions is, that parents will not permit a daughter, 110 nor even a son, to love for himself. I know a widow with a family of likely daughters, who insists upon it that her daughters do not know how to love for themselves: she therefore will love for them. She is a queer woman, and a notional creature but every one to his notion.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the intricacies of human behavior through the lens of common sayings and observations. The author, writing in a voice that is both humorous and insightful, dissects the meaning behind everyday expressions like "It will do for the present" and "When a man is going down hill, every one gives him a kick." This approach reflects a tradition of social commentary that flourished in the 18th and 19th centuries, as writers sought to understand the complexities of human nature. The book delves into themes of work ethic, societal expectations, and the pursuit of success. The author examines how common phrases often mask deeper truths about individual motivations and societal norms. By analyzing the nuances of language and behavior, the author reveals a keen understanding of human folly and the enduring power of observation. Through its witty commentary and insightful observations, this book offers a timeless reflection on the human condition.
