QUOTED IN HIS INAUGURAL PROFESSORIAL LECTURE

 "Always eat grapes downwards - that is always eat the best grape first; in this way there will be none better on the bunch, and each grape will seem good down to the last. If you eat the other way, you will not have a good grape in the lot. Besides you will be tempting Providence to kill you before you come to the best.... In New Zealand for a long time I had to do the washing up after each meal. I used to do the knives first, for it might please God to take me before I came to the forks, and then what a sell it would have been to have done the forks rather than the knives."  Samuel Butler in Henry Festing Jones (ed), The Note-Books of Samuel Butler, Fifield, London 1913.

I have had the privilege of teaching with George at Norwich and Brighton Schools of Art. The examples above represent my collection of his work as it appeared, most of it presentation copies (but I cannot guarantee the absence of pilfering).
