More quotes by Percy Bysshe Shelley
Those who love not their fellow-beings live unfruitful lives, and prepare for their old age a miserable grave.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
It is among men of genius and science that atheism alone is found.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
Reviewers, with some rare exceptions, are a most stupid and malignant race. As a bankrupt thief turns thief-taker in despair, so an unsuccessful author turns critic.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
To hope till hope creates From its own wreck the thing it contemplates.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
Sometimes it's better to put love into hugs than to put it into words. Soul meets soul on lovers' lips.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
Mild is the slow necessity of death The tranquil spirit fails beneath its grasp, Without a groan, almost without a fear, Resigned in peace to the necessity Calm as a voyager to some distant land, And full of wonder, full of hope as he.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
Fate,Time,Occasion,Chance, and Change? To these All things are subject but eternal love.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
O'er Egypt's land of memory floods are level, And they are thine, O Nile! and well thou knowest The soul-sustaining airs and blasts of evil, And fruits, and poisons spring where'er thou flowest.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
O! I burn with impatience for the moment of the dissolution of intolerance it has injured me.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
For love and beauty and delight, there is no death nor change.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
Gold is a living god and rules in scorn, All earthly things but virtue.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
Sow seed--but let no tyrant reap Find wealth--let no imposter heap Weave robes--let not the idle wear Forge arms--in your defence to bear.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
The soul's joy lies in doing.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
And many an ante-natal tomb Where butterflies dream of the life to come.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
Poets are the hierophants of an unapprehended inspiration the mirrors of the gigantic shadows which futurity casts upon the present the words which express what they understand not the trumpets which sing to battle, and feel not what they inspire the influence which is moved not, but moves. Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
To be omnipotent but friendless is to reign.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
Songs consecrate to truth and liberty.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
A God made by man undoubtedly has need of man to make himself known to man.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
I have drunken deep of joy.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
