George Eliot
“People are almost always better than their neighbors think they are.”
George Eliot, Middlemarch

George Eliot
“The troublesome ones in a family are usually either the wits or the idiots.”
George Eliot, Middlemarch

George Eliot
“If youth is the season of hope, it is often so only in the sense that our elders are hopeful about us; for no age is so apt as youth to think its emotions, partings, and resolves are the last of their kind. Each crisis seems final, simply because it is new. We are told that the oldest inhabitants in Peru do not cease to be agitated by the earthquakes, but they probably see beyond each shock, and reflect that there are plenty more to come.”
George Eliot, Middlemarch

George Eliot
“Pride helps us; and pride is not a bad thing when it only urges us to hide our own hurts—not to hurt others.”
George Eliot, Middlemarch

George Eliot
“It is an uneasy lot at best, to be what we call highly taught and yet not to enjoy: to be present at this great spectacle of life and never to be liberated from a small hungry shivering self—never to be fully possessed by the glory we behold, never to have our consciousness rapturously transformed into the vividness of a thought, the ardor of a passion, the energy of an action, but always to be scholarly and uninspired, ambitious and timid, scrupulous and dim-sighted.”
George Eliot, Middlemarch
