=We are not sent into this world to do anything into which we cannot put our hearts. We have certain work to do for our bread, and that is to be done strenuously; other work to do for our delight, and that is to be done heartily; neither is to be done by halves or shifts, but with a will; and what is not worth this effort is not to be done at all.= _Ruskin._

=We do not know what is really good or bad fortune.= _Rousseau._

=We expect everything, and are prepared for nothing.= _Mme. Swetchine._
=We expect in letters to discover somewhat= 45 =of a person's real character. It is childish indeed to expect that we are to find the whole heart of the author unveiled....

=We learn to know nothing but what we love; and the deeper we mean to penetrate into any matter with insight, the stronger and more vital must our love and passion be.= _Goethe._
=We learn wisdom from failure much more than= 15 =from success; we often discover what will do by finding out what will not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery.

=We love a girl for very different things than= 30 =understanding. We love her for her beauty, her youth, her mirth, her confidingness, her character, with its faults, caprices, and God knows what other inexpressible charms; but we do not love her for her understanding. Her mind we esteem (if it is brilliant), and it may greatly elevate her in our opinion; nay, more, it may enchain us when we already love.

=We love in others what we lack ourselves, / And would be everything but what we are.= _R. H. Stoddart._
=We love justice greatly, and just men but little.= _Joseph Roux._

=We make way for the man who boldly pushes past us.= _Bovee._
=We manufacture everything there= (in our manufacturing cities) =except men; we blanch cotton, and strengthen steel, and refine sugar, and shape pottery; but to brighten, to strengthen, to refine, or to form a single living spirit, never enters into our estimate of advantages.= _Ruskin._
=We may acquire liberty, but it is never recovered if it is once lost.= _Rousseau._
=We may all agree in lamenting that there are so many houses where you will not find a good atlas, a good dictionary, or a good cyclopædia of reference. What is still more lamentable, in a good many more houses where these books are, is that they are never referred to or opened.= _John Morley._

=We may take Fancy for a companion, but must= 20 =follow Reason as our guide.= _Johnson._
=We mount to heaven mostly on the ruins of our cherished schemes, finding our failures were successes.= _A. B. Alcott._

=Wondrous indeed is the virtue of a true book. Not like a dead city of stones, yearly crumbling, yearly needing repair; more like a tilled field, but then a spiritual field; like a spiritual tree, let me rather say, it stands from year to year, and from age to age (we have books that already number some one hundred and fifty human ages); and yearly comes its new produce of leaves (commentaries, deductions, philosophical, political systems, or were it only sermons, pamphlets, journalistic essays), every one of which is talismanic and thaumaturgic, for it can persuade men.= _Carlyle._

=Work, according to my feeling, is as much of a necessity to man as eating and sleeping. Even those who do nothing which to a sensible man can be called work, still imagine that they are doing something. The world possesses not a man who is an idler in his own eyes.= _W. v. Humboldt._
=Work alone is noble.= _Carlyle._

=Work is not man's punishment; it is his reward and his strength, his glory and his pleasure.= _George Sand._
=Work is of a religious nature,--work is of a brave nature, which it is the aim of all religion to be. "All work of man is as the swimmer's."

=Works of true merit are seldom very popular in their own day; for knowledge is on the march, and men of genius are the "præstolatores" or "videttes," that are far in advance of their comrades. They are not with them, but before them; not in the camp, but beyond it.= _Colton._
=Worldly affairs, which my friends thought so= 10 =heavy upon me, they are most of them of our own making, and fall away as soon as we know ourselves.= _Law._

=Wouldst thou know thyself, then see how others act; wouldst thou understand others, look thou into thine own heart.= _Schiller._

=Write, so much given to God; thou shalt be= 40 =heard.= _George Herbert._
=Write thy wrongs in ashes.= _Sir T. Browne._
=Writers of novels and romances in general bring a double loss on their readers--they rob them both of their time and money; representing men, manners, and things, that never have been, nor are likely to be; either confounding or perverting history and truth, inflating the mind, or committing violence upon the understanding.= _Mary Wortley Montagu._
=Writing is not literature unless it gives to the reader a pleasure which arises not only from the things said, but from the way in which they are said; and that pleasure is only given when the words are carefully or curiously or beautifully put together into sentences.= _Stopford Brooke._

=Wrong is not only different from right, but it is in strict scientific terms infinitely different.= _Carlyle._
=Wrongs are often forgiven, but contempt never is. Our pride remembers it for ever. It implies a discovery of weaknesses, which we are much more careful to conceal than crimes. Many a man will confess his crimes to a common friend, but I never knew a man who would tell his silly weaknesses to his most intimate one.= _Chesterfield._
