"Nor myrtle--which means chiefly love: and loveIs..." - Quote by Elizabeth Barrett Browning

“Life, struck sharp on death, Makes awful lightning.”

“Definition of Love: A score of zero in tennis. I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears of all my life.”

“The music soars within the little lark, And the lark soars.”

“To me it's a two-way street. They're good to me, and I'm good to them. It's a natural thing for me to love people, and I think people sense it. ... I am secure with the kind of person I am. I don't feel like I'm better than anyone, but I'm just as good as anyone.”

“Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet; She passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet. She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree; But I, being young and foolish, with her did not agree. In a field by the river my love and I did stand, And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand. She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs; But I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears.”

“I do love My country's good with a respect more tender, More holy and profound, then mine own life, My dear wife's estimate, her womb increase, And treasure of my loins.”

“Is it not better to intimate our astonishment as we pass through this world if it be only for a moment ere we are swallowed up in the yeast of the abyss? I will lift up my hands and say Kosmos.”

“From wonder into wonder existence opens.”

“To behold the day-break!The little light fades the immense and diaphanous shadows,The air tastes good to my palate.”
