More quotes by Robert Louis Stevenson

Robert Louis Stevenson
A birdie with a yellow bill Hoped upon the window sill, Cocked his shining eye and said: 'Ain't you 'shamed, you sleepy-'ead?
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.

Sightseeing is the art of disappointment.
Robert Louis Stevenson

Robert Louis Stevenson
Sing a song of seasons something bright in all, flowers in the summer, fires in the fall.
Robert Louis Stevenson

Robert Louis Stevenson
Youth now flees on feathered foot.
Robert Louis Stevenson
For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move to feel the needs and hitches of our life more nearly to come down off this feather-bed of civilisation, and find the globe granite underfoot and strewn with cutting flints.
Robert Louis Stevenson
I travel not to go anywhere, but to go.
Robert Louis Stevenson
In every part and corner of our life, to lose oneself is to be a gainer to forget oneself is to be happy.
Robert Louis Stevenson
To miss the joy is to miss everything.
Robert Louis Stevenson
Fiction is to the grown man what play is to the child it is there that he changes the atmosphere and tenor of his life.
Robert Louis Stevenson
I have resolved that from this day on, I will do all the business I can honestly, have all the fun I can reasonably, do all the good I can willingly, and save my digestion by thinking pleasantly.
Robert Louis Stevenson
Nothing made by brute force lasts.
Robert Louis Stevenson
