John Keats
Image
O, sorrow! Why dost borrow Heart's lightness from the merriment of May?
John Keats

Now a soft kiss - Aye, by that kiss, I vow an endless bliss.
John Keats

John Keats
Image
I wish I was either in your arms full of faith, or that a Thunder bolt would strike me.
John Keats
Image
Can death be sleep, when life is but a dream, And scenes of bliss pass as a phantom by? ---On death
John Keats
Image
A poet without love were a physical and metaphysical impossibility.
John Keats
Image
No one can usurp the heights... But those to whom the miseries of the world Are misery, and will not let them rest.
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
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
Image
A moment's thought is passion's passing knell.
John Keats
Image
The day is gone, and all its sweets are gone!
John Keats
