We can only begin to live when we conceive life as Tragedy.

The true poet is all the time a visionary and whether with friends or not, as much alone as a man on his death bed.

It seems to me that love, if it is fine, is essentially a discipline.

Only God, my dear, Could love you for yourself alone And not your yellow hair.

True love is a discipline in which each divines the secret self of the other and refuses to believe in the mere daily self.

A line will take us hours maybe; Yet if it does not seem a moment's thought, our stitching and unstitching has been naught.

People are responsible for their opinions, but Providence is responsible for their morals.
