Famous quotes containing the words robert louis, louis, stevenson and/or school:

    Under the wide and starry sky,
    Dig the grave and let me lie.
    Glad did I live and gladly die,
    And I laid me down with a will.
    This be the verse you grave for me:
    Here he lies where he longed to be;
    Home is the sailor, home from sea.
    And the hunter home from the hill.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    You can forgive people who do not follow you through a philosophical disquisition; but to find your wife laughing when you had tears in your eyes, or staring when you were in a fit of laughter, would go some way towards a dissolution of the marriage.
    —Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    There is no duty we so much underrate as the duty of being happy.
    —Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    Neither can I do anything to please critics belonging to the good old school of “projected biography,” who examine an author’s work, which they do not understand, through the prism of his life, which they do not know.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
