Nature I loved, and next to Nature, Art.

An ingenuous mind feels in unmerited praise the bitterest reproof. If you reject it you are unhappy, if you accept it you are undone.

Nothing is pleasanter to me than exploring in a library.

I warmed both hands before the fire of life; It sinks, and I am ready to depart.

I strove with none, for none was worth my strife. Nature I loved and, next to Nature, Art: I warm'd both hands before the fire of life; It sinks, and I am ready to depart.

No truer word, save God's, was ever spoken, Than that the largest heart is soonest broken.

Walter Savage Landor 234 quotes

Those who are quite satisfied ...

As there are some flowers which you should smell but slightly to extract all that is pleasant in them ... so there are some men with whom a slight acquaintance is quite sufficient to draw out all that is agreeable; a more intimate one would be unsafe and unsatisfactory.

States, like men, have their growth, their manhood, their decrepitude, their decay.

Absurdities are great or small in proportion to custom or insuetude.

Walter Savage Landor 234 quotes

No good writer was ever long neglected; no great man overlooked by men equally great. Impatience is a proof of inferior strength, and a destroyer of what little there may be.

Walter Savage Landor 234 quotes

What is companionship where nothing that improves the intellect is communicated, and where the larger heart contracts itself to the model and dimension of the smaller?

Walter Savage Landor 234 quotes

Of all studies, the most delightful and the most useful is biography. The seeds of great events lie near the surface; historians delve too deep for them. No history was ever true. Lives I have read which, if they were not, had the appearance, the interest, and the utility of truth.

It is as wise to moderate our belief as our desires.

Cruelty is the highest pleasure to the cruel man; it is his love.

Walter Savage Landor 234 quotes

Cruelty, if we consider it as ...

Cruelty, if we consider it as a crime, is the greatest of all; if we consider it as a madness, we are equally justifiable in applying to it the readiest and the surest means of oppression.

Walter Savage Landor 234 quotes

Cruelty in all countries is the companion of anger; but there is only one, and never was another on the globe, where she coquets both with anger and mirth.

Democracy is always the work of kings. Ashes, which in themselves are sterile, fertilize the land they are cast upon.
