Samuel Johnson Quotes
«The world will never be long without some good reason to hate the unhappy; their real faults are immediately detected, and if those are not sufficient to sink them into infamy, an additional weight of calumny will be super added.»
«One of the aged greatest miseries is that they cannot easily find a companion able to share the memories of the past.»
«Sir, he throws away his money without thought and without merit. I do not call a tree generous that sheds its fruit at every breeze.»
«It is very strange, and very melancholy, that the paucity of human pleasures should persuade us ever to call hunting one of them.»
«No man is much regarded by the rest of the world. He that considers how little he dwells upon the condition of others, will learn how little the attention of others is attracted by himself. While we see multitudes passing before us, of whom perhaps not one appears to deserve our notice or excites our sympathy, we should remember, that we likewise are lost in the same throng, that the eye which happens to glance upon us is turned in a moment on him that follows us, and that the utmost which we can reasonably hope or fear is to fill a vacant hour with prattle, and be forgotten.»
