The ultimate, angels' law, Indulging every instinct of the soul There where law, life, joy, impulse are one thing!
Robert Browning
Image
Believeth with the life, the pain shall stop.
Robert Browning
Image
Twere too absurd to slight For the hereafter the todays delight!
Robert Browning
Image
No! let me taste the whole of it, fare like my peers, The heroes of old, Bear the brunt, in a minute pay glad life's arrears Of pain, darkness and cold.
Robert Browning
Image
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
Image
Out of your whole life give but a moment! All of your life that has gone before, All to come after it, -so you ignore, So you make perfect the present, condense, In a rapture of rage, for perfection's endowment, Thought and feeling and soul and sense.

O never star Was lost here We all aspire to heaven and there is heaven Above us. If I stoop Into a dark tremendous sea of cloud, It is but for a time I press God's lamp Close to my breast its splendor soon or late Will pierce the gloom. I shall emerge some day.
Robert Browning

Our interest's on the dangerous edge of things. The honest thief, the tender murderer, the superstitious atheist.
Robert Browning

I count life just a stuff To try the soul's strength on.
Robert Browning

As is your sort of mind, So is your sort of search: You will find what you desire.
Robert Browning
Image
Love, hope, fear, faith - these make humanity These are its sign and note and character.
Robert Browning
Image
Then welcome each rebuff That turns earth's smoothness rough, Each sting that bids nor sit nor stand, but go! Be our joys three-parts pain! Strive, and hold cheap the strain Learn, nor account the pang dare, never grudge the throe!
Robert Browning
Image
Grow old with me! The best is yet to be.
Robert Browning
Image
Our aspirations are our responsibilities.
Robert Browning
Image
O woman-country! wooed not wed, Loved all the more by earth's male-lands, Laid to their hearts instead.
