Percy Bysshe Shelley
When a man marries, dies, or turns Hindu, his best friends hear no more of him.
Percy Bysshe Shelley

Percy Bysshe Shelley

Percy Bysshe Shelley
Life may change, but it may fly not Hope may vanish, but can die not Truth be veiled, but still it burneth Love repulsed, - but it returneth!
Percy Bysshe Shelley
