More quotes by Robert Browning
Again the Cousin's whistle! Go, my Love.
Robert Browning
For the preacher's merit or demerit, It were to be wished that the flaws were fewer In the earthen vessel, holding treasure, But the main thing is, does it hold good measure Heaven soon sets right all other matters!
Robert Browning
All will be gay when noontide wakes anew The buttercups, the little children's dower.
Robert Browning
Where the apple reddens never pry - lest we lose our Edens, Eve and I.
Robert Browning
Shakespeare was of us, Milton was of us, Burns, Shelley, were with us. They watch from their graves!
Robert Browning
A pretty woman's worth some pains to see.
Robert Browning
Oh never star Was lost here but it rose afar.
Robert Browning
Truth is within ourselves.
Robert Browning
Love is the energy of life.
Robert Browning
Then welcome each rebuff That turns earth's smoothness rough, Each sting that bids nor sit nor stand, but go! Be our joys three-parts pain! Strive, and hold cheap the strain Learn, nor account the pang dare, never grudge the throe!
Robert Browning
Progress is The law of life: man is not Man as yet.
Robert Browning
Only I discern Infinite passion, and the pain Of finite hearts that yearn.
Robert Browning
Is your love for the Lord sufficient to give all your time and talents to his work?
Robert Browning
Have you found your life distasteful? My life did, and does, smack sweet. Was your youth of pleasure wasteful? Mine I saved and hold complete. Do your joys with age diminish? When mine fail me, I'll complain. Must in death your daylight finish? My sun sets to rise again.
Robert Browning
Go in thy native innocence, rely On what thou hast of virtue, summon all, For God towards thee hath done his part, do thine.
Robert Browning
Take away love and our earth is a tomb.
Robert Browning
Out of your whole life give but a moment! All of your life that has gone before, All to come after it, -so you ignore, So you make perfect the present, condense, In a rapture of rage, for perfection's endowment, Thought and feeling and soul and sense.
Robert Browning
Truth that peeps Over the glass's edge when dinner's done.
Robert Browning
All poetry is difficult to read - The sense of it anyhow.
Robert Browning
A minute's success pays the failure of years.
Robert Browning
