More quotes by Thomas Carlyle
Just in ratio as knowledge increases, faith diminishes.
Thomas Carlyle
Show me the man you honor I know by that symptom, better than by any other, what kind of man you yourself are. For you show me there what your ideal of manhood is what kind of man you long inexpressibly to be.
Thomas Carlyle
Rare benevolence, the minister of God.
Thomas Carlyle

Thomas Carlyle
History is the essence of innumerable biographies.

Thomas Carlyle
God Almighty never created a man half as wise as he looks.
Thomas Carlyle

Thomas Carlyle
There can be no acting or doing of any kind till it be recognized that there is a thing to be done the thing once recognized, doing in a thousand shapes becomes possible.
Thomas Carlyle
Might and right do differ frightfully from hour to hour, but then centuries to try it in, they are found to be identical.
Thomas Carlyle
The hell of these days is the fear of not getting along, especially of not making money.
Thomas Carlyle
The fine arts once divorcing themselves from truth are quite certain to fall mad, if they do not die.
Thomas Carlyle
I do not believe in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance.
Thomas Carlyle
One monster there is in the world, the idle man.
Thomas Carlyle
No iron chain, or outward force of any kind, could ever compel the soul of man to believe or to disbelieve: it is his own indefeasible light, that judgment of his he will reign and believe there by the grace of God alone!
Thomas Carlyle
If Hero means sincere man, why may not every one of us be a Hero?
Thomas Carlyle
The dead are all holy, even they that were base and wicked while alive. Their baseness and wickedness was not they, was but the heavy and unmanageable environment that lay round them.
Thomas Carlyle
Speak not at all, in any wise, till you have somewhat to speak care not for the reward of your speaking, but simply and with undivided mind for the truth of your speaking.
Thomas Carlyle
