More quotes by Robert Browning
Mothers, wives and maids, These be the tools with which priests manage men.
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
Who knows most, doubts most.
Robert Browning
Just for a handful of silver he left us, Just for a riband to stick in his coat.
Robert Browning
Over my head his arm he flung, Against the world.
Robert Browning

Robert Browning
Never the time and the place And the loved one all together.
Robert Browning

Robert Browning
Man partly is and wholly hopes to be.
Robert Browning

Truth is within ourselves. There is an inmost center in us all, where the truth abides in fullness.
Robert Browning
Unless you can love, as the angels may, With the breadth of heaven betwixt you Unless you can dream that his faith is fast, Through behoving and unbeloving Unless you can die when the dream is past- Oh, never call it loving!
Robert Browning
Stand still, true poet that you are! I know you let me try and draw you. Some night you'll fail us: when afar You rise, remember one man saw you, Knew you, and named a star!
Robert Browning
Look not down but up!
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

Robert Browning
