More quotes by Walter Scott
Discretion is the perfection of reason, and a guide to us in all the duties of life.
Walter Scott
What I have to say is far more important than how long my eyelashes are.
Walter Scott
It is a great disgrace to religion, to imagine that it is an enemy to mirth and cheerfulness, and a severe exacter of pensive looks and solemn faces.
Walter Scott

Walter Scott
Caution comes too late when we are in the midst of evils.
Walter Scott
For monarchs seldom sigh in vain.
Walter Scott
Commend me to sterling honesty though clad in rags.
Walter Scott

Walter Scott
All men who have turned out worth anything have had the chief hand in their own education.
Walter Scott

Walter Scott
Necessity--thou best of peacemakers, As well as surest prompter of invention.
Walter Scott
Like the dew on the mountain, like the foam on the river, like the bubble on the fountain, thou art gone, and for ever!
Walter Scott
Cats are a very mysterious kind of folk. There is always more passing in their minds than we are aware of.
Walter Scott
Fight on, brave knights! Man dies, but glory lives! Fight on death is better than defeat! Fight on brave knights! for bright eyes behold your deeds!
Walter Scott
Some touch of Nature's genial glow.
Walter Scott
If you keep a thing seven years, you are sure to find a use for it.
Walter Scott
Tears are the softening showers which cause the seed of heaven to spring up in the human heart.
Walter Scott
He that climbs a ladder must begin at the first round.
Walter Scott
The pith of conversation does not consist in exhibiting your own superior knowledge on matters of small consequence, but in enlarging, improving and correcting the information you possess by the authority of others.
Walter Scott
