Vacant heart, and hand, and eye, Easy live and quiet die.
Walter Scott
Jock, when ye hae naething else to do, ye may be aye sticking in a tree it will be growing, Jock, when ye 're sleeping.
Walter Scott
What a strange scene if the surge of conversation could suddenly ebb like the tide, and show us the real state of people's minds.
Walter Scott
Soldier, rest! Thy warfare o'er.
Walter Scott
Many miles away there's a shadow on the door of a cottage on the Shore of a dark Scottish lake.

Affection can withstand very severe storms of vigor, but not a long polar frost of indifference.
Walter Scott
