Robert Burns quoted this in 1786, sounds like he was talking about Sheens & Co....
O would some power the gift to give us,
To see ourselves as others see us.
" ... And tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death..."
Macbeth
