Quotes and Images From The Works of George Meredith
Meredith, George
Quotations
Philosophy skimmed, and realistic
romances deep-sounded
Pitiful conceit in men
Planting the past in the present like a
perceptible ghost
Play the great game of blunders
Play second fiddle without looking
foolish
Pleasant companion, who did not play
the woman obtrusively among men
Please to be pathetic on that subject
after I am wrinkled
Pleasure-giving laws that make the
curves we recognize as beauty
Pleasure sat like an inextinguishable
light on her face
Poetic romance is delusion
Policy seems to petrify their minds
Polished barbarism
Politics as well as the other diseases
Poor mortals are not in the habit of
climbing Olympus to ask
Portrait of himself by the artist
Practical or not, the good people
affectingly wish to be
Practical for having an addiction to
the palpable
Prayer for an object is the cajolery of
an idol
Press, which had kindled, proceeded to
extinguished
Presumptuous belief
Pride in being always myself
Pride is the God of Pagans
Primitive appetite for noise
Principle of examining your hypothesis
before you proceed to decide by it
Procrastination and excessive
scrupulousness
Professional widows
Professional Puritans
Profound belief in her partiality for
him
Propitiate common sense on behalf of
what seems tolerably absurd
Protestant clergy the social police of
the English middle-class
Providence and her parents were not
forgiven
Published Memoirs indicate the end of a
man's activity
Puns are the smallpox of the language
Push me to condense my thoughts to a
tight ball
Push indolent unreason to gain the
delusion of happiness
Put material aid at a lower mark than
gentleness
Put into her woman's harness of the bit
and the blinkers
Puzzle to connect the foregoing and the
succeeding
Question the gain of such an
expenditure of energy
Question with some whether idiots
should live
Quick to understand, she is in the
quick of understanding
Quixottry is agreeable reading, a silly
performance
Rage of a conceited schemer tricked
Rapture of obliviousness
Rare as epic song is the man who is
thorough in what he does
Rare men of honour who can command
their passion
Rarely exacted obedience, and she was
spontaneously obeyed
Read deep and not be baffled by
inconsistencies
Read with his eyes when you meet him
this morning
Read one another perfectly in their
mutual hypocrisies
Ready is the ardent mind to take
footing on the last thing done
Real happiness is a state of dulness
Rebellion against society and advocacy
of humanity run counter
Rebukes which give immeasurable
rebounds
Recalling her to the subject-matter
with all the patience
Reflection upon a statement is its
lightning in advance
Refuge in the Castle of Negation
against the whole army of facts
Regularity of the grin of dentistry
Rejoicing they have in their common
agreement
Religion condones offences: Philosophy
has no forgiveness
Religion is the one refuge from women
Reluctant to take the life of flowers
for a whim
