The soul and body are joint-sharers in every thing they get: A man cannot dress, but his ideas get cloath'd at the same time; andif he dresses like a gentleman, every one of them stands presented to his imagination, genteelized along with him.

Laurence Sterne

Now or never was the time.

Laurence Sterne

Only the brave know how to forgive; it is the most refined and generous pitch of virtue human nature can arrive at.

Laurence Sterne

It is curious to observe the triumph of slight incidents over the mind; and what incredible weight they have in forming and governing our opinions, both of men and things, that trifles light as air shall waft a belief into the soul, and plant it so immovable within it, that Euclid's demonstrations, could they be brought to batter it in breach, should not all have power to overthrow it!

Laurence Sterne

I often derive a peculiar satisfaction in conversing with the ancient and modern dead, โ€” who yet live and speak excellently in their works. My neighbors think me often alone, โ€” and yet at such times I am in company with more than five hundred mutes โ€” each of whom, at my pleasure, communicates his ideas to me by dumb signs โ€” quite as intelligently as any person living can do by uttering of words.

Laurence Sterne

Laurence Sterne

Laurence Sterne

So much of motion, is so much of life, and so much of joy, and to stand still, or get on but slowly, is death and the devil.

Laurence Sterne

As monarchs have a right to call in the specie of a state, and raise its value, by their own impression; so are there certain prerogative geniuses, who are above plagiaries, who cannot be said to steal, but, from their improvement of a thought, rather to borrow it, and repay the commonwealth of letters with interest again; and may wore properly be said to adopt, than to kidnap a sentiment, by leaving it heir to their own fame.
