Thomas Carlyle
A noble book! all men's book!
Thomas Carlyle
Scarcely two hundred years back can Fame recollect articulately at all and there she but maunders and mumbles.
Thomas Carlyle
Pin your faith to no ones sleeves, haven't you two eyes of your own.
Thomas Carlyle
A star is beautiful it affords pleasure, not from what it is to do, or to give, but simply by being what it is. It befits the heavens it has congruity with the mighty space in which it dwells. It has repose no force disturbs its eternal peace. It has freedom no obstruction lies between it and infinity.
Thomas Carlyle
For man is not the creature and product of Mechanism but, in a far truer sense, its creator and producer.
Thomas Carlyle
Nothing stops the man who desires to achieve. Every obstacle is simply a course to develop his achievement muscle. It's a strengthening of his powers of accomplishment.
Thomas Carlyle
Under all speech that is good for anything there lies a silence that is better, Silence is deep as Eternity speech is shallow as Time.
Thomas Carlyle
All evil is like a nightmare the instant you stir under it, the evil is gone.
Thomas Carlyle
Blessed is he who has found his work let him ask no other blessedness.
Thomas Carlyle

Thomas Carlyle
Heroes, it would seem, exist always and a certain worship of them.
Thomas Carlyle
In idleness there is a perpetual despair.
Thomas Carlyle
Rare benevolence, the minister of God.
Thomas Carlyle

Thomas Carlyle
Why did not somebody teach me the constellations, and make me at home in the starry heavens, which are always overhead, and which I don't half know to this day?
Thomas Carlyle
The civil authority, or that part of it which remained faithful to their trust and true to the ends of the covenant, did, in answer to their consciences, turn out a tyrant, in a way which the Christians in aftertimes will mention with honor, and all tyrants in the world look at with fear.
Thomas Carlyle
Good breeding differs, if at all, from high breeding only as it gracefully remembers the rights of others, rather than gracefully insists on its own rights.
Thomas Carlyle
If those gentlemen would let me alone I should be much obliged to them. I would say, as Shakespeare would say... Sweet Friend, for Jesus sake forbear.
Thomas Carlyle
Of all acts of man repentance is the most divine. The greatest of all faults is to be conscious of none.
Thomas Carlyle
