Poetry has been to me its own exceeding great reward; it has given me the habit of wishing to discover the good and beautiful in all that meets and surrounds me.
Samuel Taylor ColeridgeThere is no such thing as a worthless book though there are some far worse than worthless; no book that is not worth preserving, if its existence may be tolerated; as there may be some men whom it may be proper to hang, but none should be suffered to starve.
Samuel Taylor ColeridgeReal pain can alone cure us of imaginary ills. We feel a thousand miseries till we are lucky enough to feel misery.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
