Other George Eliot quotes:
Failure after long perseverance is much grander than never to have a striving good enough to be called a failure.
All passion becomes strength when it has an outlet from the narrow limits of our personal lot in the labour of our right arm.
Life would be no better than candlelight tinsel and daylight rubbish if our spirits were not touched by what has been, to issues of longing and constancy.
Our deeds determine us, as much as we determine our deeds.
It is not true that love makes all things easy; it makes us choose what is difficult.
It is never too late to be what you might have been.
Those old stories of visions and dreams guiding men have their truth; we are saved by making the future present to ourselves.
To know intense joy without a strong bodily frame, one must have an enthusiastic soul.
No man can be wise on an empty stomach.
Wear a smile and have friends; wear a scowl and have wrinkles.
