More quotes by Robert Browning
Strike when thou wilt, the hour of rest, but let my last days be my best.
Robert Browning

Robert Browning

Robert Browning
Look not down but up!
Robert Browning
Heart, fear nothing, for, heart, thou shalt find her- Next time, herself!-not the trouble behind her

And inasmuch as feeling, the East's gift, Is quick and transient,- comes, and lo! is gone, While Northern thought is slow and durable.
