Not till the fire is dying in the grate, Look we for any kinship with the stars. Oh, wisdom never comes when it is gold, And the great price we paid for it full worth: We have it only when we are half earth. Little avails that coinage to the old!
Who rises from prayer a better man, his prayer is answered.
As we to the brutes, poets are to us.
Faith works miracles. At least it allows time for them.
Cynicism is intellectual dandyism.
The most dire disaster in love is the death of imagination.
