More quotes by Walter Scott
A thousand fearful images and dire suggestions glance along the mind when it is moody and discontented with itself. Command them to stand and show themselves, and you presently assert the power of reason over imagination.
Walter Scott
Silence, maiden thy tongue outruns thy discretion.
Walter Scott
Call it not vain: they do not err Who say that when the poet dies Mute Nature mourns her worshipper, And celebrates his obsequies.
Walter Scott
Give me an honest laugher.
Walter Scott
Vengeance to God alone belongs But, when I think of all my wrongs My blood is liquid flame!
Walter Scott
He who indulges his sense in any excesses renders himself obnoxious to his own reason and, to gratify the brute in him, displeases the man, and sets his two natures at variance.
Walter Scott
God forgive me for having thought it possible that a schoolmaster could be out and out a rational being.
Walter Scott
The happy combination of fortuitous circumstances.
Walter Scott
Welcome as the flowers in May.
Walter Scott
It is more difficult to look upon victory than upon battle.
Walter Scott
Land of my sires! what mortal hand Can e'er untie the filial band That knits me to thy rugged strand!
Walter Scott
Soldier, rest! Thy warfare o'er, Sleep the sleep that knows not breaking, Dream of battled fields no more. Days of danger, nights of waking.
Walter Scott
Success or failure in business is caused more by the mental attitude even than by mental capacities.
Walter Scott
Fair play is a jewel.
Walter Scott
Every hour has its end.
Walter Scott
What is a diary as a rule? A document useful to the person who keeps it. Dull to the contemporary who reads it and invaluable to the student, centuries afterwards, who treasures it.
Walter Scott
Woman's faith and woman's trust, Write the characters in dust.
Walter Scott
Covetousness bursts the sack and spills the grain.
Walter Scott
Meat eaten without either mirth or music is ill of digestion.
Walter Scott
It 's no fish ye 're buying, it 's men's lives.
Walter Scott
