More quotes by John Lubbock
Exercise of the muscles keeps the body in health, and exercise of the brain brings peace of mind.
John Lubbock
It would be a great thing if people could be brought to realize that they can never add to the sum of their happiness by doing wrong.
John Lubbock
Rest is by no means a waste of time.
John Lubbock
Time is a trust, and for every minute of it you will have to account.
John Lubbock
Love seems to beautify and inspire all nature. It raises the earthly caterpillar into the ethereal butterfly, it paints the feathers in spring, it lights the glowworm's lamp, it wakens the song of birds, and inspires the poet's lay. Even inanimate Nature seems to feel the spell, and flowers glow with the richest colours.
John Lubbock
Art trains the mind through the eye, and the eye through the mind. As the sun colors flowers, so does art color life.
John Lubbock
Men are more helped by sympathy than by service.
John Lubbock
It always seems to be raining harder than it really is when you look at the weather through the window.
John Lubbock
Do not lay things too much to heart. No one is ever really beaten unless he is discouraged.
John Lubbock
Try to realize all the blessings you have, and you will find perhaps that they are more than you suppose.
John Lubbock
Our own happiness ought not to be our main objective in life.
John Lubbock
False pleasures come from without and are imperfect: happiness is internal and our own.
John Lubbock
What we see depends mainly on what we look for.
John Lubbock
A crowd is not necessarily company, but neither need it necessarily prevent thought or disturb peace of mind.
John Lubbock
All those who love Nature she loves in return, and will richly reward, not perhaps with the good things, as they are commonly called, but with the best things of this world-not with money and titles, horses and carriages, but with bright and happy thoughts, contentment and peace of mind.
John Lubbock
Great battles are really won before they are actually fought. To control our passions we must govern our habits, and keep watch over ourselves in the small details of everyday life.
John Lubbock
Before buying anything, it is well to ask if one could do without it.
John Lubbock
A poor woman from Manchester, on being taken to the seaside, is said to have expressed her delight on seeing for the first time something of which there was enough for everybody.
John Lubbock
We must not sit still and look for miracles up and doing, and the Lord will be with thee.
John Lubbock
There are temptations which strong exercise best enables us to resist
