Robert Browning
Image
God's justice, tardy though it prove perchance, Rests never on the track until it reach Delinquency.
Robert Browning
Image
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
Image
O woman-country! wooed not wed, Loved all the more by earth's male-lands, Laid to their hearts instead.
Robert Browning
Image
Look not down but up!
Robert Browning

Success in marriage is more than finding the right person: it is being the right person.
