Inspirational Quotations by Thomas Carlyle

  • Make yourself an honest man, and then you may be
    sure that there is one less scoundrel in the world.
    From Issue 208
  • The fraction of life can be increased in value
    not so much by increasing your numerator as by
    lessening your denominator. Nay, unless my Algebra
    deceives me, unity itself divided by zero will give infinity.
    From Issue 244
  • No man who has once heartily and wholly
    laughed can be altogether irreclaimably bad.
    From Issue 273
  • Under all speech that is good for anything
    there lies a silence that is better,
    Silence is deep as Eternity;
    Speech is shallow as Time.
    From Issue 285
