Nothing ever becomes real till it is experienced.
John Keats
Image

John Keats
Image
No, no, I'm sure, My restless spirit never could endure To brood so long upon one luxury, Unless it did, though fearfully, espy A hope beyond the shadow of a dream.

John Keats
Image
Let us away, my love, with happy speed There are no ears to hear, or eyes to see, - Drown'd all in Rhenish and the sleepy mead. Awake! arise! my love and fearless be, For o'er the southern moors I have a home for thee.
John Keats

John Keats
Image
Don't be discouraged by a failure. It can be a positive experience.
John Keats
Image
When I behold, upon the night's starr'd face, Huge cloudy symbols of a high romance, And think that I may never live to trace Their shadows, with the magic hand of chance.
John Keats
Image
The thought, the deadly thought of solitude.
John Keats
Image
Severn - I - lift me up - I am dying - I shall die easy don't be frightened - be firm, and thank God it has come.
John Keats
Image
We have woven a web, you and I, attached to this world but a separate world of our own invention.
John Keats
Image
Young playmates of the rose and daffodil, Be careful ere ye enter in, to fill Your baskets high With fennel green, and balm, and golden pines Savory latter-mint, and columbines.
John Keats
Image
I do think better of womankind than to suppose they care whether Mister John Keats five feet high likes them or not.
John Keats
Image
O latest born and loveliest vision far of all Olympus' faded hierarchy.
