Walter Scott
A sound head, an honest heart, and an humble spirit are the three best guides through time and to eternity.
Walter Scott
And children know, Instinctive taught, the friend and foe.
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
