Thomas B. Macaulay Quotes About Life

Quotes about: Life

• But thou, through good and evil, praise and blame,
  Wilt not thou love me for myself alone?
  Yes, thou wilt love me with exceeding love,
  And I will tenfold all that love repay;
  Still smiling, though the tender may reprove,
  Still faithful, though the trusted may betray.

  Thomas B. Macaulay

  Life, Evil, Faithful

  Thomas B. Macaulay

  Life, Spring, Flower

• The Life of Johnson is assuredly a great, a very great work. Homer is not more decidedly the first of heroic poets. Shakespeare is not more decidedly the first of dramatists, Demosthenes is not more decidedly the first of orators, than Boswell is the first of biographers. He has no second.
