That golden sky, which was the doubly blessed symbol of advancing day and of approaching rest.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

There's good chances and bad chances, and nobody's luck is pulled only by one string.

to my thinking, it is more pitiable to bore than to be bored.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

autobiography at least saves a man or woman that the world is curious about from the publication of a string of mistakes called 'Memoirs.

When you get me a good man made out of arguments, I will get you a good dinner with reading you the cookery book.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

...Though there's reasons in ...

...Though there's reasons in things as nobody knows on---- that's pretty much what I've made out; yet some folks are so wise they'll find you fifty reasons straight off, and all the while the real reason's winking at 'em in the corner, and they niver see't.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

What is better than to love and live with the loved? -- But that must sometimes bring us to live with the dead; and this too turns at last into a very tranquil and sweet tie, safe from change and injury.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

Dear Friends all, A thousand ...

Dear Friends all, A thousand Christmas pleasures and blessings to you -- good resolutions and bright hopes for the New Year! Amen. People who can't be witty exert themselves to be pious or affectionate.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

I am feeling easy now, and you will well understand that after undergoing pain this ease is opening paradise. Invalids must be excused for being eloquent about themselves.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

Some people are born to make life pretty, and others to grumble that it is not pretty enough.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

... happy husbands and wives ...

... happy husbands and wives can hear each other say the same thing over and over again without being tired.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

Loquacity with tongue or pen ...

Loquacity with tongue or pen is its own reward -- or, punishment.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

Expenditure--like ugliness and errors--becomes a totally new thing when we attach our own personality to it, and measure it by that wide difference which is manifest (in our own sensations) between ourselves and others.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

When I married Humphrey I mad...

When I married Humphrey I made up my mind to like sermons, and I set out by liking the end very much. That soon spread to the middle and the beginning, because I couldn't have the end without them.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

In the first moments when we come away from the presence of death, every other relation to the living is merged, to our feeling, in the great relation of a common nature and a common destiny.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

Love at its highest flood rus...

Love at its highest flood rushes beyond its object, and loses itself in the sense of divine mystery.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

What people do who go into politics I can't think; it drives me almost mad to see mismanagement over only a few hundred acres.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

All writing seems to me worse...

All writing seems to me worse in the state of proof than in any other form. In manuscript one's own wisdom is rather remarkable to one, but in proof it has the effect of one's private furniture repeated in the shop windows. And then there is the sense that the worst errors will go to press unnoticed!

George Eliot 1236 quotes

I don't feel sure about doing...

I don't feel sure about doing good in any way now; everything seems like going on a mission to a people whose language I don't know.

George Eliot 1236 quotes

Men and women are but children of a larger growth.
