More quotes by John Keats
I will imagine you Venus tonight and pray, pray, pray to your star like a Heathen.
John Keats
Parting they seemed to tread upon the air, Twin roses by the zephyr blown apart Only to meet again more close.
John Keats
Feeling well that breathed words Would all be lost, unheard, and vain as swords Against the enchased crocodile, or leaps Of grasshoppers against the sun.
John Keats
Poetry should surprise by a fine excess and not by singularity, it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts, and appear almost a remembrance.
John Keats
A man's life of any worth is a continual allegory, and very few eyes can see the mystery of his life, a life like the scriptures, figurative.
John Keats
Failure is, in a sense, the highway to success.
John Keats
I am in that temper that if I were under water I would scarcely kick to come to the top.
John Keats
I wish I was either in your arms full of faith, or that a Thunder bolt would strike me.
John Keats
To feel forever its soft fall and swell, Awake for ever in a sweet unrest, Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath, And so live ever-or else swoon in death.
John Keats
Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard Are sweeter therefore, ye soft pipes, play on Not to the sensual ear, but, more endear'd, Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone.
John Keats
I came to feel how far above All fancy, pride, and fickle maidenhood, All earthly pleasure, all imagined good, Was the warm tremble of a devout kiss.
John Keats
And shade the violets, That they may bind the moss in leafy nets.
John Keats
A poet is the most unpoetical of anything in existence because he has no identity he is continually informing and filling some other body.
John Keats
And there shall be for thee all soft delight That shadowy thought can win, A bright torch, and a casement ope at night, To let the warm Love in!
John Keats
What is there in thee, Moon! That thou should'st move My heart so potently?
John Keats
That queen of secrecy, the violet.
John Keats
O for the gentleness of old Romance, the simple planning of a minstrel's song!
John Keats
To bear all naked truths, And to envisage circumstance, all calm, That is the top of sovereignty
John Keats
With a great poet the sense of Beauty overcomes every other consideration, or rather obliterates all consideration.
John Keats
Open afresh your rounds of starry folds, Ye ardent Marigolds.
John Keats
