Other John Ruskin quotes:
It is better to lose your pride with someone you love rather than to lose that someone you love with your useless pride.
To be able to ask a question clearly is two-thirds of the way to getting it answered.
The highest reward for a person's toil is not what they get for it, but what they become by it.
It is advisable that a person know at least three things, where they are, where they are going, and what they had best do under the circumstances.
Summer is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces up, snow is exhilarating; there is no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.
Do not think of your faults, still less of other's faults; look for what is good and strong, and try to imitate it. Your faults will drop off, like dead leaves, when their time comes.
Doing is the great thing, for if people resolutely do what is right, they come in time to like doing it.
Do not think it wasted time to submit yourselves to any influence which may bring upon you any noble feeling.
There is no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.
A man wrapped up in himself makes a very small parcel.
