Image
No sooner had I stepp'd into these pleasures Than I began to think of rhymes and measures: The air that floated by me seem'd to say 'Write! thou wilt never have a better day.
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
Through buried paths, where sleepy twilight dreams The summer time away.
John Keats
Image
I have met with women whom I really think would like to be married to a Poem and to be given away by a Novel.
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
There is an awful warmth about my heart like a load of immortality.
John Keats
Image
Sudden a thought came like a full-blown rose, Flushing his brow.
John Keats
Image
The roaring of the wind is my wife and the stars through the window pane are my children. The mighty abstract idea I have of beauty in all things stifles the more divided and minute domestic happiness.
John Keats
Image
A little noiseless noise among the leaves, Born of the very sigh that silence heaves.
John Keats
Image

John Keats
Image
I have so much of you in my heart.
John Keats
Image
I have loved the principle of beauty in all things.
John Keats
Image
I am certain of nothing but the holiness of the Heart’s affections and the truth of the Imagination – What the imagination seizes as Beauty must be truth – whether it existed before or not – for I have the same Idea of all our Passions as of Love they are all in their sublime, creative of essential Beauty . . .
John Keats
Image
Knowledge enormous makes a God of me. Names, deeds, gray legends, dire events, rebellions, Majesties, sovran voices, agonies, Creations and destroyings, all at once Pour into the wide hollows of my brain, And deify me, as if some blithe wine Or bright elixir peerless I had drunk, And so become immortal.
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
My friends should drink a dozen of Claret on my Tomb.
John Keats
Image
Scenery is fine - but human nature is finer.
John Keats
Image
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
Image
Why employ intelligent and highly paid ambassadors and then go and do their work for them? You don't buy a canary and sing yourself.
John Keats
Image
Shed no tear - O, shed no tear! The flower will bloom another year. Weep no more - O, weep no more! Young buds sleep in the root's white core.
