Lastly (and this is, perhaps,...

Lastly (and this is, perhaps, the golden rule), no woman should marry a man who does not smoke.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

We should wipe two words from...

We should wipe two words from our vocabulary: gratitude and charity. In real life, help is given out of friendship, or it is not valued; it is received from the hand of friendship, or it is resented.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

We should strive to go on in ...

We should strive to go on in fortune and misfortune like a clock during a thunderstorm.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

There is nothing but God's gr...

There is nothing but God's grace. We walk upon it; we breathe it; we live and die by it; it makes the nails and axles of the universe.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

It is perhaps a more fortunate destiny to have a taste for collecting shells than to be born a millionaire.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

When your toil has been a ple...

When your toil has been a pleasure, you have not earned money merely, but money, health, delight, and moral profit, all in one.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

The bold may not live long, but the timid never live at all.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

In each of us, two natures ar...

In each of us, two natures are at war – the good and the evil. All our lives the fight goes on between them, and one of them must conquer. But in our own hands lies the power to choose – what we want most to be we are.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

Everyday courage has few witn...

Everyday courage has few witnesses. But yours is no less noble because no drum beats for you and no crowds shout your name.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

Sir, with no intention to take offence, I deny your right to put words into my mouth.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

Do not write merely to be understood. Write so you cannot possibly be misunderstood.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

If you want a person's faults...

If you want a person's faults, go to those who love him. They will not tell you, but they know.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

Give us grace and strength to...

Give us grace and strength to forbear and to persevere. Give us courage and gaiety, and the quiet mind. Spare to us our friends, soften to us our enemies. Bless us, if it may be, in all our innocent endeavours. If it may not, give us the strength to encounter that which is to come, that we may be brave in peril, constant in tribulation, temparate in wrath, and in all changes of fortune, and down to the gates of death, loyal and loving to one another.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

The world has no room for cow...

The world has no room for cowards. We must all be ready somehow to toil, to suffer, to die.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

and he began to understand what a wild game we play in life; he began to understand that a thing once done cannot be undone nor changed by saying "I am sorry!

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

Some places speak distinctly....

Some places speak distinctly. Certain dark gardens cry aloud for a murder; certain old houses demand to be haunted; certain coasts are set apart for shipwreck.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

Friends: People who know you ...

Friends: People who know you well, but like you anyway.
The cruelest lies are often told in silence.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

In the other gardens
And all...

In the other gardens
And all up the vale,
From the autumn bonfies
See the smoke trail!
Pleasant summer over
And all the summer flowers,
The red fire blazes,
the grey smoke towers.
Sing a song of seasons!
Something bright in all,
Flowers in the summer
Fires in the fall!

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

It is one of the worst things...

It is one of the worst things of sentiment that the voice grows to be more important than the words, and the speaker than that what is spoken.

Robert Louis Stevenson 555 quotes

A knowledge that another has ...

A knowledge that another has felt as we have felt, and seen things not much otherwise than we have seen them, will continue to the end to be one of life's choicest blessings.
