Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sayings of Samuel Pepys, one of the most important English diarists, collected in an attractive new package; 'The nature of the English is generally to be self-lovers, and thinking everything of their own the best, viz. Our beef, beer, women, horses, religion, laws, etc' 'So home to bed, pleased as I always am after I have rid a great deal of work, it being very satisfactory to me' 'God forgive me, I do still see that my nature is not to be quite conquered, but will esteem pleasure above all things' Samuel Pepys made his mark on English history with his work for the navy, but it is his diaries that have made his name immortal. No Englishman has had a greater zest for life, a more delighted vitality, than Samuel Pepys. Avid for pleasure, he was no less passionate for efficiency. Enjoying beauty in all its form, he was also a man of insatiable intellectual curiosity, President of the Royal Society, friend and patron of Scholars, never bored, he himself is never boring. Nothing was beneath his notice and nothing above it. His Diary brings the whole age of Charles II before us as no other text does.

Download or read book Samuel Pepys written by E. Hallam Moorhouse and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Samuel Pepys: Administrator, Observer, Gossip IT is inevitable that any book on Pepys should have long and frequent quotations from his Diary inevitable also that however much is put in much that is interesting, amusing, and characteristic should be left out. N O re-telling Of Pepys' Diary is to be tolerated, and that is the justification for ample quotation, for there is neither gain nor wisdom in attempting to turn his own inimitable phrases into a modern and most inferior version. SO wherever a thing can be told in Pepys' words I have so told it - any one who writes Of him, at the best, can only be a showman, and the place Of a showman is in the background when the principal actor is on the stage. Or in the metaphor Of Sir Walter Scott The subject is like a good sirloin, which requires only to be basted with its own drippings - therefore discreet cook and retiring showman are the humble parts I have attempted in this book.
