A greater number of God's creatures believe in Mahomet's word at this hour than in any other word whatever. Are we to suppose that it was a miserable piece of spiritual legerdemain, this which so many creatures of the almighty have lived by and died by?...

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

These Arabs, the man Mahomet, ...

These Arabs, the man Mahomet, and that one century, - is it not as if a spark had fallen, one spark, on a world of what proves explosive powder, blazes heaven-high from Delhi to Granada! I said, the Great man was always as lightning out of Heaven; the rest of men waited for him like fuel, and then they too would flame...

Without kindness there can be no true joy.

A great man shows his greatness by the way he treats little men.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

If a book comes from the heart...

If a book comes from the heart, it will contrive to reach other hearts; all art and author-craft are of small amount to that.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

I had a lifelong quarrel with ...

I had a lifelong quarrel with God, but in the end we made up.

There are female dandies as well as clothes-wearing men; and the former are as objectionable as the latter.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

Hardened round us, encasing wholly every notion we form is a wrapping of traditions, hearsay's, and mere words.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

It is not honest inquiry that makes anarchy; but it is error, insincerity, half belief and untruth that make it.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

Eternity looks grander and kinder if time grow meaner and more hostile.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

The authentic insight and experience of any human soul, were it but insight and experience in hewing of wood and drawing of water, is real knowledge, a real possession and acquirement.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

It is the feeling of injustice that is insupportable to all men.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

In a different time, in a diff...

In a different time, in a different place, it is always some other side of our common human nature that has been developing itself. The actual truth is the sum of all these.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

A sad spectacle. If they be in...

A sad spectacle. If they be inhabited, what a scope for misery and folly. If they be not inhabited, what a waste of space.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

All destruction, by violent re...

All destruction, by violent revolution or however it be, is but new creation on a wider scale.

No age seemed the age of romance to itself.

Not what you possess but what ...

Not what you possess but what you do with what you have, determines your true worth.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

The errors of a wise man are l...

The errors of a wise man are literally more instructive than the truths of a fool. The wise man travels in lofty, far-seeing regions; the fool in low-lying, high-fenced lanes; retracing the footsteps of the former, to discover where he diviated, whole provinces of the universe are laid open to us; in the path of the latter, granting even that he has not deviated at all, little is laid open to us but two wheel-ruts and two hedges.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

Nature is the time-vesture of ...

Nature is the time-vesture of God that reveals Him to the wise, and hides him from the foolish.

The crash of the whole solar and stellar systems could only kill you once.
