Стр. 107 - Nothing can less display knowledge, or less exercise invention, than to tell how a shepherd has lost his companion, and must now feed his flocks alone, without any judge of his skill in piping; and how one god asks another god what has become of Lycidas, and how neither god can tell. He who thus grieves will excite no sympathy ; he who thus praises will confer no honour.
Стр. 360 - Almost every speculation respecting the economical interests of a society thus constituted, implies some theory of Value : the smallest error on that subject infects with corresponding error all our other conclusions ; and anything vague or misty in our conception of it, creates confusion and uncertainty vn everything else.
Стр. 119 - Lyrical Ballads; in which it was agreed that my endeavours should be directed to persons and characters supernatural, or at least romantic, yet so as to transfer from our inward nature a human interest and a semblance of truth sufficient to procure for these shadows of imagination that willing suspension of disbelief for the moment, which constitutes poetic faith.
Стр. 526 - Elliot was rational, discreet, polished, but he was not open. There was never any burst of feeling, any warmth of indignation or delight, at the evil or good of others. This, to Anne, was a decided imperfection. Her early impressions were incurable. She prized the frank, the openhearted, the eager character beyond all others. Warmth and enthusiasm did captivate her still.
Стр. 45 - But it shall be allowed to the subjects of France to catch fish and to dry them on land in that part only, and in no other besides that...
Стр. 217 - For the people. And truly I desire their liberty and freedom as much as anybody whomsoever. But I must tell you that their liberty and freedom consists in having of government: those laws by which their life and their goods may be most their own. It is not for having share in government, sir, that is nothing pertaining to them.
Стр. 123 - ... et quel est l'objet de la médecine ; mais on ne sait pas en quoi consiste l'agrément, qui est l'objet de la poésie. On ne sait ce que c'est que ce modèle naturel qu'il faut imiter ; et, faute de cette connoissance , on a inventé de certains termes bizarres, siècle d'or, merveille de nos jours , fatal laurier, bel astre , etc.
Стр. 364 - The conclusion to which I am ever more clearly coming is that the only hope of attaining a true system of Economics is to fling aside once and for ever the mazy and preposterous assumptions of the Ricardian school.
Стр. 594 - It's said that in all there is about eighty thousand pound sterling lost there, whereof Glasgow has lost ten thousand pound. I wish trading persons may see the language of such a Providence. I am sure the Lord is remarkably frouning upon our trade, in more respects than one, since it was put in the room of religion, in the late alteration of our constitution.
Стр. 515 - We all feel pity sometimes ; but the goor of the Tuponee changes our nature : it would change the nature of a horse. Let any man once taste of that goor, and he will be a Thug, though he know all the trades and have all the wealth in the world.
