About This Quote

The author of this quote, Samuel Johnson, was one of the great critics of the English language. He made a lot of the rules that are still in place in our vernacular today. This quote is from his book, The Rambler  (1750), in which he wrote about his former employer, Bishop Edmund Whitgift. The bishop believed that charity begins at home or in the family. If you are one who believes that charity doesn't begin at home, then this quote is for you!
