pull down to refresh
Love! Love until the night collapses!
----Pablo Neruda, Machu Picchu
For I dance
And drink and sing,
Till some blind hand Shall brush my wing.
If thought is life
And strength and breath
And the want
Of thought is death
Then am I
A happy fly
If I live
Or if I die
---William Blake
Then my heart with pleasure fills
And dances with the daffodils.
---William Wordsworth
When i tell the truth, it is not for the sake of convincing those who do not know it, but for the sake of defending those that do.
---William Blake
The best portion of a good man's life: his little, nameless unremembered acts of kindness and love.
---William Wordsworth
I seem to walk on a transparent surface and see beneath me all the bones and wrecks and tentacles that will eventually claim me: in other words, old age, incapacity, loneliness, death of others & myself...
----Philip Larkin
Expect poison from the standing water.
---William Blake
Be mild, and cleave to gentle things,
thy glory and thy happiness be there.
----William Wordsworth
Though nothing can bring back the hour
Of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower;
We will grieve not, rather find
Strength in what remains behind;
In the primal sympathy
Which having been must ever be...
----William Wordsworth
Can I see anothers woe,
And not be in sorrow too.
Can I see anothers grief,
And not seek for kind relief.
---William Blake
Both read the Bible day and night,
But thou read'st black where I read white.
---William Blake
Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day.
ā Dylan Thomas
It becomes still more difficult to find
Words at once true and kind,
Or not untrue and not unkind.
----Philip Larkin
How little our careers express what lies in us, and yet how much time they take up. It's sad, really.
----Philip Larkin
Familiar acts are beautiful through love.
---Percy Bysshe Shelley: Prometheus Unbound
