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.

Applause is the spur of noble minds, the end and aim of weak ones.
'Tis pride, rank pride, and haughtiness of soul:
I think the Romans call it Stoicism.
No place affords a more striking conviction of the vanity of human hopes than a public library.
