More quotes by Izaak Walton
God has two dwellings — one in heaven, and the other in a meek and thankful heart.
This dish of meat is too good for any but anglers, or very honest men.
It [angling] deserves commendations;… it is an art worthy the knowledge and practice of a wise man.

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
