George Eliot Quotes

If You Could Only Speak The Devil Fair Enough, He Might Save You The Cost Of The Doctor. Such Strange Lingering Echoes Of The Old Demon-worship Might Perhaps Even Now Be Caught By The Diligent Listener Among The Grey-haired Peasantry; For The Rude Mind With Difficulty Associates The Ideas Of Power And Benignity. A Shadowy Conception Of Power That By Much Persuasion Can Be Induced To Refrain From Inflicting Harm, Is The Shape Most Easily Taken By The Sense Of The Invisible In The Minds Of Men Who Have Always Been Pressed Close By Primitive Wants, And To Whom A Life Of Hard Toil Has Never Been Illuminated By Any Enthusiastic Religious Faith. To Them Pain And Mishap Present A Far Wider Range Of Possibilities Than Gladness And Enjoyment: Their Imagination Is Almost Barren Of The Images That Feed Desire And Hope, But Is All Overgrown By Recollections That Are A Perpetual Pasture To Fear.
