Additional quotes by H. Rider Haggard

I am not a nervous man in a general way, and very little troubled with superstitions, of which I have lived to see the folly.

It is awkward to listen to oneself being praised, and I was always a shy man.

While you are a man, live the life of a man, and when you become a spirit, live the life of a spirit. But do not seek to mix the two together like oil and wine, and thus spoil both.
