More Quotes from William Makepeace Thackeray:

All the world used her ill, said this young misanthropist, and we may be pretty certain that persons whom all the world treats ill, deserve entirely the treatment they get. The world is a looking-glass, and gives back to every man the reflection of his own face. Frown at it, and it will in turn look sourly upon you; laugh at it and with it, and it is a jolly kind companion; and so let all young persons take their choice.
William Makepeace Thackeray

It is from the level of calamities, not that of every-day life, that we learn impressive and useful lessons.
William Makepeace Thackeray

William Makepeace Thackeray

Good humor is one of the best articles of dress one can wear in society.
