There rolls the deep where grew the tree. O earth, what changes hast thou seen! There where the long street roars, hath been The stillness of the central sea. The hills are shadows, and they flow From form to form, and nothing stands They melt like mist, the solid lands, Like clouds they shape themselves and go.

Alfred Lord Tennyson

Alfred Lord Tennyson
Image
I wind about, and in and out, - With here a blossom sailing, - And here and there a lusty trout, - And here and there a grayling.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
Image
The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
Image
If I make dark my countenance, I shut my life from happier chance.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
Image
Wearing all that weight Of learning lightly like a flower.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
Image
Yet is there one true line, the pearl of pearls: Man dreams of Fame while woman wakes to love.
Alfred Lord Tennyson

It is unconceivable that the whole Universe was merely created for us who live in this third-rate planet of a third-rate moon.
