More quotes by Christina Rossetti
For there is no friend like a sister in calm or stormy weather To cheer one on the tedious way, to fetch one if one goes astray, to lift one if one totters down, to strengthen whilst one stands.
Christina Rossetti
When I am dead, my dearest, Sing no sad songs for me
Christina Rossetti
A pin has a head, but has no hair
Christina Rossetti
Let bygones be bygones.
Christina Rossetti
Does the road wind up-hill all the way? Yes, to the very end.
Christina Rossetti
Yet come to me in dreams, that I may live My very life again though cold in death Come back to me in dreams, that I may give Pulse for pulse, breath for breath: Speak low, lean low, As long ago, my love, how long ago
Christina Rossetti

Christina Rossetti
Can anything be sadder than work left unfinished? Yes, work never begun.
Christina Rossetti
I wish I could remember the first day, First hour, first moment of your meeting me If bright or dim the season it might be Summer or winter for aught I can say. So, unrecorded did it slip away, So blind was i to see and to forsee, So dull to mark the budding of my tree That would not blossom, yet, for many a May.
Christina Rossetti
Faith is like a lily, lifted high and white.
Christina Rossetti
In the bleak midwinter Frosty wind made moan, Earth stood hard as iron, Water like a stone Snow had fallen, Snow on snow, Snow on snow, In the bleak midwinter, Long ago.
Christina Rossetti
Where innocent bright-eyes daisies are With blades of grass between, Each daisy stands up like a star Out of a sky of green.
Christina Rossetti
Consider The lilies of the field whose bloom is brief:-- We are as they Like them we fade away As doth a leaf.
Christina Rossetti
Hope is like a harebell, trembling from its birth,Love is like a rose, the joy of all the earth,Faith is like a lily, lifted high and white,Love is like a lovely rose, the world's delight.Harebells and sweet lilies show a thornless growth,But the rose with all its thorns excels them both.
Christina Rossetti
My heart is like a singing bird.
Christina Rossetti
Christmas hath a darkness Brighter than the blazing noon Christmas hath a chillness Warmer than the heat of June, Christmas hath a beauty Lovelier than the world can show: For Christmas bringeth Jesus, Brought for us so low
Christina Rossetti
For I am bound with fleshly bands, Joy, beauty, lie beyond my scope I strain my heart, I stretch my hands, And catch at hope.
Christina Rossetti
Spring is when life's alive in everything.
Christina Rossetti
Love came down at Christmas, Love all lovely, Love Divine Love was born at Christmas Star and angels gave the sign.
Christina Rossetti
Rest, rest at the heart's core . . . till joy shall overtake.
Christina Rossetti
