More quotes by Robert Louis Stevenson
An aim in life is the only fortune worth finding.
Robert Louis Stevenson
Everybody, soon or late, sits down to a banquet of consequences.
Robert Louis Stevenson
To know what you like is the beginning of wisdom and of old age. Youth is wholly experimental. The essence and charm of that unquiet and delightful epoch is ignorance of self as well as ignorance of life.
Robert Louis Stevenson
There comes an end to all things the most capacious measure is filled at last and this brief condescension to evil finally destroyed the balance of my soul.
Robert Louis Stevenson
The friendly cow, all red and white, I love with all my heart She gives me cream with all her might, To eat with apple-tart.
Robert Louis Stevenson
Since hate poisons the soul, don't cherish enmities or grudges: avoid people who make you unhappy.
Robert Louis Stevenson
The child that is not clean and neat, With lots of toys and things to eat, He is a naughty child, I'm sure-- Or else his dear Papa is poor.
Robert Louis Stevenson
...those little people, my brownies, who do one half of my work for me while I am fast asleep, and in all human likelihood do the rest for me as well, when I am wide awake and fondly suppose I do for myself.
Robert Louis Stevenson
If you wish the pick of men and women, take a good bachelor and a good wife
Robert Louis Stevenson
Courage, the footstool of the Virtues, upon which they stand.
Robert Louis Stevenson
Everyone lives by selling something.
Robert Louis Stevenson
The world has no room for cowards. We must all be ready somehow to toil, to suffer, to die.
Robert Louis Stevenson
All error, not merely verbal, is a strong way of stating that the current truth is incomplete.
Robert Louis Stevenson
In the law of God, there is no statute of limitations.
Robert Louis Stevenson
In the other gardens And all up the vale, From the autumn bonfies See the smoke trail! Pleasant summer over And all the summer flowers, The red fire blazes, the grey smoke towers. Sing a song of seasons! Something bright in all, Flowers in the summer Fires in the fall!
Robert Louis Stevenson
Had be been Shakespeare, he would then have written Troilus and Cressidato brand the offending sex but being only a little dog, he began to bite them.
Robert Louis Stevenson
Saints are sinners who kept on going.
Robert Louis Stevenson
It is almost as if the millennium were arrived, when we shall throw our clocks and watches over the housetop, and remember time and seasons no more. Not to keep hours for a lifetime is... to live forever.
Robert Louis Stevenson
Some places speak distinctly. Certain dark gardens cry aloud for a murder certain old houses demand to be haunted certain coasts are set apart for shipwreck.
Robert Louis Stevenson
I've a grand memory for forgetting.
Robert Louis Stevenson
