More quotes by Arthur Helps
Man ceased to be an ape, vanquished the ape, on the day the first book was written.
Arthur Helps
It takes a great man to make a great listener
Arthur Helps
To hear always, to think always, to learn always, it is thus that we live truly. He who aspires to nothing, who learns nothing, is not worthy of living.
Arthur Helps
You cannot ensure the gratitude of others for a favour conferred upon them in the way which is most agreeable to yourself.
Arthur Helps
Infinite toil would not enable you to sweep away a mist but by ascending a little you may often look over it altogether.
Arthur Helps
We are frequently understood the least by those who have known us the longest.
Arthur Helps
It is better in some respects to be admired by those with whom you live than to be loved by them and this not on account of any gratification of vanity, but because admiration is so much more tolerant than love.
Arthur Helps
Many know how to please, but know not when they have ceased to give pleasure.
Arthur Helps
The reasons which any man offers to you for his own conduct betray his opinion of your character.
Arthur Helps
The most common-place people become highly imaginative when they are in a passion. Whole dramas of insult, injury, and wrong pass before their minds,--efforts of creative genius, for there is sometimes not a fact to go upon.
Arthur Helps
Wise sayings often fall on barren ground, but a kind word is never thrown away.
Arthur Helps
The heroic example of other days is in great part the source of the courage of each generation and men walk up composedly to the most perilous enterprises, beckoned onward by the shades of the brave that were.
Arthur Helps
Be cheerful [and grateful for the good that you have]: do not brood over fond hopes unrealized until a chain is fastened on each thought and wound around the heart. Nature intended you to be the fountain-spring of cheerfulness and social life, and not the mountain of despair and melancholy.
Arthur Helps
A great and frequent error in our judgment of human nature is to suppose that those sentiments and feelings have no existence, which may be only for a time concealed. The precious metals are not found at the surface of the earth, except in sandy places.
Arthur Helps
The worst use that can be made of success is to boast of it.
Arthur Helps
Those who never philosophized until they met with disappointments, have mostly become disappointed philosophers
Arthur Helps
Always say a kind word if you can, if only that it may come in, perhaps, with singular opportuneness, entering some mournful man's darkened room, like a beautiful firefly, whose happy circumvolutions he cannot but watch, forgetting his many troubles.
Arthur Helps
They tell us that Pity is akin to Love if so, Pity must be a poor relation.
Arthur Helps
It requires a strong mind to bear up against several languages. Some persons have learnt so many, that they have ceased to think in any one.
Arthur Helps
Do not be deceived into thinking that how a man acts is the full picture.
