Walter Scott
I envy thee not thy faith, which is ever in thy mouth but never in thy heart nor in thy practice
Walter Scott
Success or failure in business is caused more by the mental attitude even than by mental capacities.
Walter Scott
Earth walks on Earth, Glittering in gold Earth goes to Earth, Sooner than it wold Earth builds on Earth, Palaces and towers Earth says to Earth, Soon, all shall be ours.
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
I will tear this folly from my heart, though every fibre bleed as I rend it away!
Walter Scott
