Walter Scott
To the timid and hesitating everything is impossible because it seems so.
Walter Scott
Unless a tree has borne blossoms in spring, you will vainly look for fruit on it in autumn.
Walter Scott
When a man has not a good reason for doing a thing, he has one good reason for letting it alone.
Walter Scott
The chain of friendship, however bright, does not stand the attrition of constant close contact.
Walter Scott
True love's the gift which God has given To man alone beneath the heaven: It is not fantasy's hot fire, Whose wishes soon as granted fly It liveth not in fierce desire.
Walter Scott
