The dust of controversy is me...

The dust of controversy is merely the falsehood flying off.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

The modern majesty consists i...

The modern majesty consists in work. What a man can do is his greatest ornament, and he always consults his dignity by doing it.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

In no time whatever can small...

In no time whatever can small critics entirely eradicate out of living men's hearts a certain altogether peculiar collar reverence for Great Men--genuine admiration, loyalty, adora-tion.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

In every man's writings, the ...

In every man's writings, the character of the writer must lie recorded.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

The aristocracy of feudal par...

The aristocracy of feudal parchment has passed away with a mighty rushing, and now, by a natural course, we arrive at aristocracy of the money-bag.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

Does not every true man feel ...

Does not every true man feel that he is himself made higher by doing reverence to what is really above him?

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

How, without clothes, could we possess the master organ, soul's seat and true pineal gland of the body social--I mean a purse?

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

Cease to brag to me of Americ...

Cease to brag to me of America, and its model institutions and constitutions. America, too, will have to strain its energies, crack its sinews, and all but break its heart, as the rest of us have had to do, in thousand-fold wrestle with the Pythons, and mud-demons, before it can become a babitation for the gods.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

In every object there is inex...

In every object there is inexhaustible meaning.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

It is meritorious to insist on forms; religion and all else naturally clothes itself in forms. Everywhere the formed world is the only habitable one.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

Taste, if it mean anything bu...

Taste, if it mean anything but a paltry connoisseurship, must mean a general susceptibility to truth and nobleness, a sense to discern, and a heart to love and reverence all beauty, order, goodness, wheresoever, or in whatsoever forms and accompaniments they are to be seen. This surely implies, as its chief condition, not any given external rank or situation, but a finely-gifted mind, purified into harmony with itself, into keenness and justness of vision; above all, kindled into love and generous admiration.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

Let him who would move and co...

Let him who would move and convince others, be first moved and convinced himself.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

One seems to believe almost a...

One seems to believe almost all that they believe; and when they stop short and call it a Religion, and you pass on, and call it only a reminiscence of one, should you not part with the kiss of peace?

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

A poor creature who has said ...

A poor creature who has said or done nothing worth a serious man taking the trouble of remembering.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

The end of Man is an Action, ...

The end of Man is an Action, and not a Thought, though it were the noblest?

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

That great mystery of TIME, w...

That great mystery of TIME, were there no other; the illimitable, silent, never-resting thing called Time, rolling, rushing on, swift, silent, like an all-embracing ocean tide, on which we and all the Universe swim like exhalations, like apparitions which are, and then are not: this is forever very literally a miracle; a thing to strike us dumb,-for we have no word to speak about it.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

In every object there is inex...

In every object there is inexhaustible meaning; the eye sees in it what the eye brings means of seeing.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

No person was every rightly u...

No person was every rightly understood until they had been first regarded with a certain feeling, not of tolerance, but of sympathy.

Thomas Carlyle 1193 quotes

A greater number of God's cre...

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

He that works and does some P...

He that works and does some Poem, not he that merely says one, is worthy of the name of Poet.
