Wisdom Quote by Charles Kingsley — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Some say that the age of chivalry is past, that the spirit of romance is dead. The age of chivalry is never past, so long as there is a wrong left unredressed on earth.”

“There is nothing more wonderful than a book. It may be a message to us from the dead, from human souls we never saw who lived perhaps thousands of miles away, and yet these little sheets of paper speak to us, arouse us, teach us, open our hearts and in turn open their hearts to us like brothers. Without books, God is silent, justice dormant, philosophy lame.”

“The most wonderful and the strongest things in the world, you know, are just the things which no one can see.”

“Between hope and fear, let us kindle imagination and grow resilience, creating the momentum to transform rusty patterns and inhabit the wisdom of each precious “moment.” (“Going back to yesterday“)”

“I have said: "Blow out the lamp! Day is here!" And you keep saying: "Give me a lamp so I can find the day.”

“Do not seek to follow in the footsteps of the wise; seek what they sought.”

“You should always listen to minotaurs. Anybody with four stomachs has to have a firm grip on reality.”

“It is better to listen to a crow that lives in trees than to a learned man who lives only in ideas.”

“I lied and said I was busy.”
