More quotes by Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Hell is wherever Love is not, and Heaven Is Love's location. No dogmatic creed, No austere faith based on ignoble fear Can lead thee into realms of joy and peace. Unless the humblest creatures on the earth Are bettered by thy loving sympathy Think not to find a Paradise beyond.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
How happy they are, in all seeming, How gay, or how smilingly proud, How brightly their faces are beaming, These people who make up the crowd!
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Say you are well, or all is well with you, and God shall hear your words and make them true.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
It stands in the light transfigured, It speaks from the heights above, Each Soul Is Its Own Redeemer There Is No Law But Love.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Change is the watchword of progression.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Give, and thou shalt receive. Give thoughts of cheer,Of courage and success, to friend and stranger.And from a thousand sources, far and near,Strength will be sent thee in thy hour of danger.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Better than glory, or honors, or fame, (Though I am striving for those to-day) To know that some heart will cherish my name, And think of me kindly, with blessings, alway.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
God made poor woman with no heart, But gave her skill, and tact, and art, And so she lives, and plays her part. We must not blame, but pity her.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
I Love your lips when they're wet with wine and red with wicked desire.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
The sin and the shame and the sorrow, The crime and the want and the woe That are born there in your workshop, No hand can paint, you know.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
The man who radiates good cheer, who makes life happier wherever he meets it, is always a man of vision and faith.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
There is new strength, repose of mind, and inspiration in fresh apparel.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
I detect more good than evil in humanity. Love lights more fires than hate extinguishes, And men grow better as the world grows old.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Life is a garden forever in flower.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
So many gods, so many creeds, so many paths that wind and wind while just the art of being kind is all the sad world needs.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
It is impossible to pursue a successful literary career and follow the advice of all one's 'best friends'.I feel compelled to follow the light which my own intellect & judgement cast upon my way, rather than any one of the many conflicting rays which other minds would lend me.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
The art of being kind is all the world needs.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
This dream of our youth will fade out as the splendor Fades from the skies when the sun sinks to sleep.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
For an actress to be a success, she must have the face of Venus, the brains of a Minerva, the grace of Terpsichore, the memory of a Macaulay, the figure of Juno, and the hide of a rhinoceros.
