Lady Morgan Quote
Lady Morgan, the Irish novelist, witty and captivating, who wrote "Kate Kearney" and the "Wild Irish Girl," when speaking of the laxity of a certain bishop in regard to Lenten fasting, said:
"I believe he would eat a horse on Ash Wednesday. A very
proper diet if it were a fast horse."
