George Robert Gissing
» Books and Reading » “I know every book of mine by its smell, and I have but to put my nose between the pages to be reminded of all sorts of things.”
» Courage » “Have the courage of your desire.”
» Courage » “For the man sound of body and serene of mind there is no such thing as bad weather; every day has its beauty, and storms which whip the blood do but make it pulse more vigorously.”
» Hope » “Honest winter, snow clad and with the frosted beard, I can welcome not uncordially; but that long deferment of the calendar’s promise, that weeping loom of March and April, that bitter blast outraging the honor of May — how often has it robbed me of heart and hope.”
» Time and Time Management » “Time is money says the proverb, but turn it around and you get a precious truth. Money is time.”
