Image
But let me see thee stoop from heaven on wings That fill the sky with silver glitterings!
John Keats
Image
O aching time! O moments big as years!
John Keats
Image
In a drear-nighted December, Too happy, happy brook, Thy bubblings ne'er remember Apollo's summer look But with a sweet forgetting, They stay their crystal fretting, Never, never petting About the frozen time.
John Keats
Image
The imagination of a boy is healthy, and the mature imagination of a man is healthy but there is a space of life between, in which the soul is in a ferment, the character undecided, the way of life uncertain, the ambition thick-sighted: thence proceeds mawkishness.
John Keats
Image
I love your hills and I love your dales, And I love your flocks a-bleating but oh, on the heather to lie together, With both our hearts a-beating!
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
The Public - a thing I cannot help looking upon as an enemy, and which I cannot address without feelings of hostility.
John Keats
Image
Poetry should be great and unobtrusive, a thing which enters into one's soul, and does not startle it or amaze it with itself, but with its subject.
John Keats
Image
What is there in thee, Moon! That thou should'st move My heart so potently?
John Keats
Image
--then on the shore Of the wide world I stand alone, and think Till love and fame to nothingness do sink.
John Keats
Image
There is an awful warmth about my heart like a load of immortality.
John Keats
Image
You have absorb'd me. I have a sensation at the present moment as though I was dissolving.
John Keats
Image
Even bees, the little almsmen of spring bowers, know there is richest juice in poison-flowers.
John Keats
Image
I have loved the principle of beauty in all things.
John Keats
Image
Here are sweet peas, on tiptoe for a flight With wings of gentle flush o'er delicate white, And taper fingers catching at all things, To bind them all about with tiny rings.
John Keats
Image
When old age shall this generation waste, Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st, Beauty is truth, truth beauty, - that is all Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.
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
Sudden a thought came like a full-blown rose, Flushing his brow.
John Keats
Image
Dancing music, music sad, Both together, sane and mad.
John Keats
Image
I have so much of you in my heart.
John Keats
