More quotes by George Eliot
The blessed work of helping the world forward, happily does not wait to be done by perfect men.
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.
Animals are such agreeable friends - they ask no questions, they pass no criticisms.

To sin by silence, when we should protest,
Makes cowards out of men.
There are times when good words are to be left unsaid out of esteem for silence.
