"Love comes in at the eye...." - Quote by William Butler Yeats

“One should not lose one's temper unless one is certain of getting more and more angry to the end.”

“Much did I rage when young, Being by the world oppressed, But now with flattering tongue It speeds the parting guest.”

“It seems that I must bid the Muse to pack, / Choose Plato and Plotinus for a friend / Until imagination, ear and eye, / Can be content with argument and deal / In abstract things; or be derided by / A sort of battered kettle at the heel.”

“Compassion is the wish for another being to be free from suffering; love is wanting them to have happiness.”

“Romantic Love is only an Illusion. A story one makes up in One's Mind about Another Person.”

“I told you once that [our marriage] was like an adolescent's dream of what marriage should be like. That hasn't changed.”

“You don't expect me to know what to say about a play when I don't know who the author is, do you? . . . If it's by a good author, it's a good play, naturally. That stands to reason.”

“Wordsworth went to the Lakes, but he was never a lake poet. He found in stones the sermons he had already hidden there.”

“The beautiful has but one type, the ugly has a thousand.”
