Quotes by Horace Walpole
- Men are often capable of greater things than they perform. They are sent into the world with bills of credit, and seldom draw to their full extent.
- Old friends are the great blessing of one's latter years—half a word conveys one's meaning. They have memory of the same events, and have the same mode of thinking.
- When people will not weed their own minds, they are apt to be overrun by nettles.
