Proverbs, aphorisms, quotations (English) by Linux fortune

Every night my prayers I say,
        And get my dinner every day;
And every day that I've been good,
        I get an orange after food.
The child that is not clean and neat,
        With lots of toys and things to eat,
He is a naughty child, I'm sure--
        Or else his dear papa is poor.
                -- Robert Louis Stevenson
A friend is a present you give yourself.
                -- Robert Louis Stevenson
No man is useless who has a friend, and if we are loved we are indispensable.
                -- Robert Louis Stevenson
There is a certain frame of mind to which a cemetery is, if not an antidote,
at least an alleviation.  If you are in a fit of the blues, go nowhere else.
        --Robert Louis Stevenson: Immortelles
Our business in life is not to succeed but to continue to fail in high spirits.
                -- Robert Louis Stevenson
