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
Of power does Man possess no particle: Of knowledge-just so much as show that still It ends in ignorance on every side.
Robert Browning
Youth means love, Vows can't change nature, priests are only men.
Robert Browning

Over my head his arm he flung, Against the world.
Robert Browning
