Quotes by Arthur Sullivan (?)

“I am poor in the essence of happiness, lady — rich only in never-ending unrest. In me there meet a combination of antithetical elements which are at eternal war with one another. Driven hither by objective influences — thither by subjective emotions — wafted one moment into blazing day, by mocking hope — plunged the next into the Cimmerian darkness of tangible despair, I am but a living ganglion of irreconcilable antagonisms. I hope I make myself clear, lady?”
― Arthur Sullivan, H. M.S. Pinafore, or the Lass That Loved a Sailor (Classic Reprint): An Entirely Original Nautical Comic Opera in Two Acts
