More From Walter Scott

What is a country? a country is a piece of land surrounded on all sides by boundaries, usually unnatural. englishmen are dying for england, americans are dying for america, germans are dying for germany, russians are dying for russia. there are now fifty or sixty countries fighting in this war. surely so many countries can't all be worth dying for.
Country War Fighting
A little neglect may breed great mischief. ... for want of a nail, the shoe was lost; for want of a shoe, the horse was lost; for want of a horse, the battle was lost; for want of the battle, the war was lost.
Time Horse War
The apocalypse is now! americans know this, that the only hope is the flying saucers. do you know how i see the world? like a person who is dying. it's a worm who is dying to make a butterfly. we must not stop the worm from dying, we must help the worm to die to help the butterfly to be born. we need to dance with death. this world is dying, but very well. we will make a big, big enormous butterfly. you and i will be the first movements in the wings of the butterfly because we are speaking like this.
Butterfly Wings Flying
In the meantime the groans changed into the protracted, thunderous roar by which all living creatures are struck with terror, and the nerves of people, who do not know what fear is, shake, just as the window-panes rattle from distant cannonading.
Fear Window Panes People
The world is full of people who have lost faith: politicians who have lost faith in politics, social workers who have lost faith in social work, schoolteachers who have lost faith in teaching and, for all i know, policemen who have lost faith in policing and poets who have lost faith in poetry. it's a condition of faith that it gets lost from time to time, or at least mislaid.
Faith Teaching People
The left have taken a really beautiful thing, male-female relationships, and turned them into a battle, a political battle, an ideological war. and if you doubt me, what is the war on women? what the hell is it? how crazy is that entire concept, that there is a political party conducting a war on women because they hate them. and the fact that they can sell that to their voters and make political gain on that basis is damn amazing to me. and yet how many people do you know who really believe that there's a war on women, that republicans/conservatives don't like women?
Beautiful War Hate
Similar Quotes
You can meet people who are really beautiful. then, when you see them angry for the first time, all of a sudden they're not beautiful anymore. they didn't just step into the other room and have plastic surgery; they're still the same physically. it's just that something inside of them has changed. they're no longer attractive.
Beautiful People Rooms
Man enjoys living on the edge of his dreams and neglects the real things of the world which are so beautiful. the ignorant and indifferent destroy beautiful things merely by looking at the marble. things that remake the soul of him who understands them.
Beautiful Dream Real
To his eyes all seemed beautiful, but to me a tinge of melancholy lay upon the countryside, which bore so clearly the mark of the waning year, yellow leaves carpeted the lanes and fluttered down upon us as we passed, the rattle of our wheels died away as we drove through drifts of rotting vegetation--sad gifts, as it seemed to me, for nature to throw before the carriage of the returning heir of the baskervilles.
Beautiful Eye Years
Every weird thing about you is beautiful and makes life interesting.
