Thomas Carlyle Citations

“L'on a beaucoup écrit sur la façon dont Mahomet propagea sa religion par l'épée. Il y a, sans doute, beaucoup d'honnêteté de la part des chrétiens à se vanter d'avoir, eux, propagé leur religion pacifiquement.”

Thomas Carlyle livre Les héros, le culte des héros et l'héroique dans l'histoire

Much has been said of Mahomet's propagating his Religion by the sword. It is no doubt far nobler what we have to boast of the Christian Religion, that it propagated itself peaceably.

Thomas Carlyle: Citations en anglais

“England, as I persuade myself, still contains in it many kings; possesses, as old Rome did, many men not needing "election" to command, but eternally elected for it by the Maker Himself. England's one hope is in these, just now. They are among the silent, I believe; mostly far away from platforms and public palaverings; not speaking forth the image of their nobleness in transitory words, but imprinting it, each on his own little section of the world, in silent facts, in modest valiant actions, that will endure forevermore. They must sit silent no longer. They are summoned to assert themselves; to act forth, and articulately vindicate, in the teeth of howling multitudes, of a world too justly maddened into all manner of delirious clamors, what of wisdom they derive from God.”
