Walter Scott Long Quotations

What I have to say is far more important than how long my eyelashes are.

The way was long, the wind was cold, The Minstrel was infirm and old; His withered cheek, and tresses gray, Seemed to have know a better day.

Thou hast had thty day, old dame, but thy sun has long been set. Thou art now the very emblem of an old warhorse turned out on the barren heath; thou hast had thy paces in thy time, but now a broken amble is the best of them.

Threatened folk live long.

As long as the Fates permit, live cheerfully.

Affection can withstand very severe storms of vigor, but not a long polar frost of indifference.
