More From Walter Scott
- "Teach you children poetry; it opens the mind, lends grace to wisdom and makes the heroic virtues hereditary."
- "Success – keeping your mind awake and your desire asleep."
- "The race of mankind would perish did they cease to aid each other. We cannot exist without mutual help. All therefore that need aid have a right to ask it from their fellow-men; and no one who has the power of granting can refuse it without guilt."
