More quotes by Alfred Lord Tennyson

Alfred Lord Tennyson

Alfred Lord Tennyson
But the tender grace of a day that is dead Will never come back to me.

Alfred Lord Tennyson
Ring out the old, ring in the new, Ring, happy bells, across the snow: The year is going, let him go Ring out the false, ring in the true.

The thrall in person may be free in soul
Alfred Lord Tennyson
I sometimes find it half a sin, To put to words the grief i feel, For words like nature,half reveal, and half conceal the soul within.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
Not wholly in the busy world, nor quite Beyond it, blooms the garden that I love. News from the humming city comes to it It sound of funeral or of marriage bells.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
I cannot rest from travel: I will drink Life to the lees: all times I have enjoyed Greatly, have suffered greatly, both with those That loved me, and alone.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
That man's the true Conservative who lops the moldered branch away.

A simple maiden in her flower, Is worth a hundred coats of arms.
