buffoon quotes

A man so various that he seemed to be Not one, but all mankind's epitome. Stiff in opinions, always in the wrong; Was everything by starts, and nothing long: But, in the course of one revolving moon, Was chemist, fiddler, statesman, and buffoon.

-Dryden,John
Absalom and  Achitophel, pt.1, l.545^60.
