More quotes by 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
Chivalry!---why, maiden, she is the nurse of pure and high affection---the stay of the oppressed, the redresser of grievances, the curb of the power of the tyrant ---Nobility were but an empty name without her, and liberty finds the best protection in her lance and her sword.
Walter Scott
What I have to say is far more important than how long my eyelashes are.
Walter Scott
One or two of these scoundrel statesmen should be shot once a-year, just to keep the others on their good behavior.
Walter Scott
come he slow or come he fast it is but death that comes at last
Walter Scott
For Love will still be lord of all.
Walter Scott

Walter Scott
I was not always a man of woe.
Walter Scott
Breathes there the man with soul so dead, Who never to himself hath said, This is my own, my native land.
Walter Scott
For deadly fear can time outgo, and blanch at once the hair.
Walter Scott

Walter Scott
Charge, Chester, charge! on, Stanley, on! Were the last words of Marmion.
Walter Scott
Hurry no man's cattle you may come to own a donkey yourself
Walter Scott
When Israel, of the Lord belov'd, Out of the land of bondage came, Her fathers' God before her mov'd, An awful guide in smoke and flame.
Walter Scott
Some touch of Nature's genial glow.
Walter Scott
Sleep the sleep that knows not breaking, morn of toil, nor night of waking.
Walter Scott
Welcome as the flowers in May.
Walter Scott
Greatness of any kind has no greater foe than a habit of drinking.
Walter Scott
The summer dawn's reflected hue To purple changed Lock Katrine blue, Mildly and soft the western breeze Just kiss'd the lake, just stirr'd the trees, And the pleased lake, like maiden coy, Trembled but dimpled not for joy.
Walter Scott
When thinking about companions gone, we feel ourselves doubly alone.
Walter Scott
