Thomas Carlyle
Fire is the best of servents; but what a master!
Carlyle quotes
Not all his men may sever this,
 It yields to friends', not monarchs', calls;
My whinstone house my castle is—
 I have my own four walls.
Carlyle
Blessed is the healthy nature; it is the coherent, sweetly co-operative, not incoherent, self-distracting, self-destructive one!




Carlyle Thomas quotes
All work is as seed sown; it grows and spreads, and sows itself anew.
