More quotes by Robert Louis Stevenson
Some day...after I am dead, you may perhaps come to learn the right and wrong of this. I cannot tell you.
Robert Louis Stevenson
There are, indeed, few merrier spectacles than that of many windmills bickering together in a fresh breeze over a woody country their halting alacrity of movement, their pleasant business, making bread all day with uncouth gesticulation their air, gigantically human, as of a creature half alive, put a spirit of romance into the tamest landscape.
Robert Louis Stevenson
You cannot run away from weakness you must some time fight it out or perish and if that be so, why not now, and where you stand?
Robert Louis Stevenson
Bright is the ring of words When the right man rings them, Fair the fall of songs When the singer sings them. Still they are carolled and said - On wings they are carried - After the singer is dead And the maker buried.
Robert Louis Stevenson

Robert Louis Stevenson
Make up your mind to be happy. Learn to find pleasure in simple things.
Robert Louis Stevenson
To travel hopefully is a better thing than to arrive.
Robert Louis Stevenson

Robert Louis Stevenson
It is the property of things seen for the first time, or for the first time after long, like the flowers in spring, to reawaken in us the sharp edge of sense and that impression of mystic strangeness which otherwise passes out of life with the coming of years but the sight of a loved face is what renews a man's character from the fountain upwards.
Robert Louis Stevenson
-I am not sure whether he's sane. -If there's any doubt about the matter, he is.
Robert Louis Stevenson
If he be Mr. Hyde he had thought, I shall be Mr. Seek.
Robert Louis Stevenson
The only noble thing a man can do with money is to build a schooner.
Robert Louis Stevenson
I lived on rum, I tell you. It's been meat and drink, and man and wife, to me.
Robert Louis Stevenson
Absences are a good influence in love and keep it bright and delicate.
Robert Louis Stevenson
There is no music like a little river's . . . It takes the mind out-of-doors . . . and . . . it quiets a man down like saying his prayers.
Robert Louis Stevenson
To miss the joy is to miss everything.
Robert Louis Stevenson
It is a great thing if you can persuade people that they are somehow or other partakers in a mystery. It makes them feel bigger.
Robert Louis Stevenson
Little do ye know your own blessedness for to travel hopefully is a better thing than to arrive, and the true success is to labour.
Robert Louis Stevenson
The price we have to pay for money is sometimes liberty.
Robert Louis Stevenson
We should strive to go on in fortune and misfortune like a clock during a thunderstorm.
Robert Louis Stevenson
