"How joyously the young sea-mewLay dreaming on..." - Quote by Elizabeth Barrett Browning

“Sing, seraph with the glory! heaven is high.Sing, poet with the sorrow! earth is low.The universe's inward voices cry"Amen" to either song of joy and woe.Sing, seraph, poet! sing on equally!”

“But I love you, sir:And when a woman says she loves a man,The man must hear her, though he love her not.”

“Men of science, osteologists And surgeons, beat some poets, in respect For nature,-count nought common or unclean, Spend raptures upon perfect specimens Of indurated veins, distorted joints, Or beautiful new cases of curved spine; While we, we are shocked at nature's falling off, We dare to shrink back from her warts and blains.”

“The two most beautiful sights I have witnessed in my life are a full blown ship at sail and the round-bellied pregnant female.”

“Rush out in the rain to be soaked with the sky.”

“The world is a marvelous system of wiggles.”

“There is something terribly morbid in the modern sympathy with pain. One should sympathise with the colour, the beauty, the joy of life. The less said about life's sores the better.”

“Laugh as much as you can.”

“One joy dispels a hundred cares.”
