Friday’s answers

Thursday’s questions were:

1. Who said: “Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone.” ?

2.  From which poem does the following quote come and what is the last line: Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all . . .

3. It’s laid in French; brutto in Italian, feo  in Spanisha and kikino in Maori, what is it in English?

4. Who said: “Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.”?

5. Do you judge books by their covers?

Points for answers:

Andrei got four right.

Adam got three.

Alwyn wins an electronic bunch of daffodils with 4 1/2 (it was William but Morris not Barnes).

Rob got two and a bonus for humour.

Answers follow the break:

1. Dorothy Parker.

2. Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know. Ode on a Grecian Urn.

3. Ugly.

4. William Morris.

5. Yes – and sometimes that’s right and sometimes it’s not.
