More quotes by George Eliot
The blessed work of helping the world forward, happily does not wait to be done by perfect men.
Blessed is the man who, having nothing to say, abstains from giving us wordy evidence of the fact.
The happiest women, like the happiest nations, have no history.
Howiver, I'm not denyin' the women are foolish: God Almighty made 'em to match the men.

False words are not only evil in themselves, but they infect the soul with evil.
It is better to be poor and walk in integrity than to be stupid and speak lies.
Who dares think one thing, and another tell,
My heart detests him as the gates of hell.
