Text Quotes
Even in the common affairs of life, in love, friendship, and marriage, how little security have we when we trust our happiness in the hands of others!  (William Hazlitt Quotes) Few things tend more to alienate friendship than a want of punctuality in our engagements. I have known the breach of a promise to dine or sup to break up more than one intimacy  (William Hazlitt Quotes) Hope is the best possession. None are completely wretched but those who are without hope. Few are reduced so low as that  (William Hazlitt Quotes) I would like to spend the whole of my life traveling, if I could anywhere borrow another life to spend at home  (William Hazlitt Quotes) Life is the art of being well deceived; and in order that the deception may succeed it must be habitual and uninterrupted  (William Hazlitt Quotes) Look up, laugh loud, talk big, keep the color in your cheek and the fire in your eye, adorn your person, maintain your health, your beauty and your animal spirits  (William Hazlitt Quotes) No man is truly great who is great only in his lifetime. The test of greatness is the page of history  (William Hazlitt Quotes) People of genius do not excel in any profession because they work in it, they work in it because they excel  (William Hazlitt Quotes) Poetry is the universal language which the heart holds with nature and itself. He who has a contempt for poetry, cannot have much respect for himself, or for anything else  (William Hazlitt Quotes) The dupe of friendship, and the fool of love; have I not reason to hate and to despise myself? Indeed I do; and chiefly for not having hated and despised the world enough  (William Hazlitt Quotes) The most insignificant people are the most apt to sneer at others. They are safe from reprisals. And have no hope of rising in their own self esteem but by lowering their neighbors  (William Hazlitt Quotes) The seat of knowledge is in the head; of wisdom, in the heart. We are sure to judge wrong, if we do not feel right  (William Hazlitt Quotes) The world judge of men by their ability in their profession, and we judge of ourselves by the same test: for it is on that on which our success in life depends  (William Hazlitt Quotes) There are no rules for friendship. It must be left to itself. We cannot force it any more than love  (William Hazlitt Quotes) There is a heroism in crime as well as in virtue. Vice and infamy have their altars and their religion  (William Hazlitt Quotes) There is a secret pride in every human heart that revolts at tyranny. You may order and drive an individual, but you cannot make him respect you  (William Hazlitt Quotes) To be capable of steady friendship or lasting love, are the two greatest proofs, not only of goodness of heart, but of strength of mind  (William Hazlitt Quotes) To think ill of mankind and not wish ill to them, is perhaps the highest wisdom and virtue  (William Hazlitt Quotes) We are very much what others think of us. The reception our observations meet with gives us courage to proceed, or damps our efforts  (William Hazlitt Quotes) The art of life is to know how to enjoy a little and to endure very much  (William Hazlitt Quotes) The humblest painter is a true scholar; and the best of scholars the scholar of nature  (William Hazlitt Quotes) The love of liberty is the love of others; the love of power is the love of ourselves  (William Hazlitt Quotes) We are fonder of visiting our friends in health than in sickness. We judge less favorably of their characters when any misfortune happens to them; and a lucky hit, either in business or reputation, improves even their personal appearance in our eyes  (William Hazlitt Quotes) The silence of a friend commonly amounts to treachery. His not daring to say anything in our behalf implies a tacit censure  (William Hazlitt Quotes) The same reason makes a man a religious enthusiast that makes a man an enthusiast in any other way... an uncomfortable mind in an uncomfortable body  (William Hazlitt Quotes) Those are ever the most ready to do justice to others, who feel that the world has done them justice  (William Hazlitt Quotes) In exploring new and doubtful tracts of speculation, the mind strikes out true and original views; as a drop of water hesitates at first what direction it will take, but afterwards follows its own course  (William Hazlitt Quotes) You are never tired of painting, because you have to set down not what you know already, but what you have just discovered  (William Hazlitt Quotes) Man is an intellectual animal, and therefore an everlasting contradiction to himself. His senses centre in himself, his ideas reach to the ends of the universe; so that he is torn in pieces between the two, without a possibility of its ever being otherwise  (William Hazlitt Quotes) One of the pleasantest things in the world is going on a journey; but I like to go by myself  (William Hazlitt Quotes)
