More quotes by Robert Browning
Hatred and cark and care, what place have they / In yon blue liberality of heaven?.
Robert Browning
Again the Cousin's whistle! Go, my Love.
Robert Browning
The devil, that old stager, who leads downward, perhaps, but fiddles all the way!
Robert Browning
Was there nought better than to enjoy? No feat which, done, would make time break, And let us pent-up creatures through Into eternity, our due? No forcing earth teach heaven's employ?
Robert Browning
Is your love for the Lord sufficient to give all your time and talents to his work?
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
The lie was dead And damned, and truth stood up instead.
Robert Browning
Only I discern Infinite passion, and the pain Of finite hearts that yearn.
Robert Browning
Of what I call God, And fools call Nature.
Robert Browning
It 's wiser being good than bad It 's safer being meek than fierce It 's fitter being sane than mad. My own hope is, a sun will pierce The thickest cloud earth ever stretched That after Last returns the First, Though a wide compass round be fetched.
Robert Browning
Pleasure must succeed to pleasure, else past pleasure turns to pain
Robert Browning
Be sure they sleep not whom God needs.
Robert Browning
God's justice, tardy though it prove perchance, Rests never on the track until it reach Delinquency.
Robert Browning
One who never turned his back but marched breast forward, never doubted clouds would break, Never dreamed, though right were worsted, wrong would triumph, Held we fall to rise, are baffled to fight better, sleep to wake.
Robert Browning
I judge people by what they might be, - not are, nor will be.
Robert Browning
Shun death, is my advice.
Robert Browning
Aspire, break bounds. Endeavor to be good, and better still, best.
Robert Browning
Strike when thou wilt, the hour of rest, but let my last days be my best.
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
Who knows most, doubts most.
