More quotes by Anthony Trollope
He possessed the rare merit of making a property of his time and not a burden.
Anthony Trollope
Speeches easy to young speakers are generally very difficult to old listeners.
Anthony Trollope
There are some points on which no man can be contented to follow the advice of another - some subjects on which a man can consult his own conscience only.
Anthony Trollope
The best education is to be had at a price, as well as the best broadcloth.
Anthony Trollope
There is no road to wealth so easy and respectable as that of matrimony.
Anthony Trollope
A husband is very much like a house or a horse.
Anthony Trollope
It would seem that the full meaning of the word marriage can never be known by those who, at their first outspring into life, are surrounded by all that money can give. It requires the single sitting-room, the single fire, the necessary little efforts of self-devotion, the inward declaration that some struggle shall be made for that other one.
Anthony Trollope
Rights and rules, which are bonds of iron to a little man, are packthread to a giant.
Anthony Trollope
Men will love to the last, but they love what is fresh and new. A woman's love can live on the recollection of the past, and cling to what is old and ugly.
Anthony Trollope
Power is so pleasant that men quickly learn to be greedy in the enjoyment of it, and to flatter themselves that patriotism requires them to be imperious.
Anthony Trollope
Cham is the only thing to screw one up when one is down a peg.
Anthony Trollope
It is a grand thing to rise in the world. The ambition to do so is the very salt of the earth. It is the parent of all enterprise, and the cause of all improvement.
Anthony Trollope
Though they were Liberals they were not democrats nor yet infidels.
Anthony Trollope
It has become a certainty now that if you will only advertise sufficiently you may make a fortune by selling anything.
Anthony Trollope
The man who worships mere wealth is a snob.
Anthony Trollope
What on earth could be more luxurious than a sofa, a book, and a cup of coffee?...Was ever anything so civil?
Anthony Trollope
It may almost be a question whether such wisdom as many of us have in our mature years has not come from the dying out of the power of temptation, rather than as the results of thought and resolution.
Anthony Trollope
It may, indeed, be assumed that a man who loses his temper while he is speaking is endeavouring to speak the truth such as he believes it to be, and again it may be assumed that a man who speaks constantly without losing his temper is not always entitled to the same implicit faith.
Anthony Trollope
It is very difficult to say nowadays where the suburbs of London come to an end and where the country begins. The railways, instead of enabling Londoners to live in the country have turned the countryside into a city.
Anthony Trollope
Upon the present occasion London was full of clergymen. The specially clerical clubs, the Oxford and Cambridge, the Old University, and the Athenaeum, were black with them.
