Letter "R" » Robert Bridges Quotes
«That discipline which corrects the eagerness of worldly passions, which fortifies the heart with virtuous principles, which enlightens the mind with useful knowledge, and furnishes to it matter of enjoyment from within itself, is of more consequence to real felicity than all the provisions which we can make of the goods of fortune.»
«Beauty sat with me all the summer day, / Awaiting the sure triumph of her eye; / Nor mark'd I till we parted, how, hard by, / Love in her train stood ready for his prey.»
«My delight and thy delight / Walking, like two angels white, / In the gardens of the night.»
«And Reason kens he herits in / A haunted house. Tenants unknown / Assert their squalid lease of sin / With earlier title than his own.»
«For beauty being the best of all we know / Sums up the unsearchable and secret aims / Of nature.»
«Beautiful must be the mountains whence ye come, / And bright in the fruitful valleys the streams, wherefrom / Ye learn your song.»
«Perfect little body, without fault or stain on thee.»
«I heard a linnet courting / His lady in the spring.»
«`O look at the trees!' they cried, `O look at the trees!'»
«Whither, O splendid ship, thy white sails crowding, / Leaning across the bosom of the urgent West.»
