"How many goodly creatures are there here!
How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world
That has such people in't!" ~ The Tempest by William Shakespeare The world prefers decorum to honesty. ~ Diana of the Crossways by George Meredith The well of true wit is truth itself, the gathering of the precious drops of right reason, wisdom's lightning; and no soul possessing and dispensing it can justly be a target for the world, however well armed the world confronting her. ~ Diana of the Crossways by George Meredith "Why, then the world's mine oyster. Which I with sword will open." ~ The Merry Wives of Windsor by William Shakespeare The complex affair we call the world requires a great variety of people to keep it going. ~ The Golden House by Charles Dudley Warner I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving: To reach the port of heaven, we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it,--but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor. ~ The Autocrat of the Breakfast Table by Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. "There is no refuge from memory and remorse in this world. The spirits of our foolish deeds haunt us, with or without repentance." ~ Mrs. Falchion by Gilbert Parker For it is the mind which creates the world about us, and, even though we stand side by side in the same meadow, my eyes will never see what is beheld by yours, my heart will never stir to the emotions with which yours is touched. ~ The Private Papers of Henry Ryecroft by George Gissing "The world is wearied of statesmen; whom democracy has degraded into politicians." ~ Lothair by Benjamin Disraeli "If you would have your son to walk honourably through the world, you must not attempt to clear the stones from his path, but teach him to walk firmly over them - not insist upon leading him by the hand, but let him learn to go alone." ~ The Tenant of Wildfell Hall by Anne Bronte
