More quotes by Robert Browning
Tis Man's to explore up and down, inch by inch, with the taper his reason.
Robert Browning
When I love most, love is disguised. In hate and when hate is surprised, in love, then I hate most.
Robert Browning
I want to know a butcher paints, A baker rhymes for his pursuit, Candlestick-maker much acquaints His soul with song, or, haply mute, Blows out his brains upon the flute.
Robert Browning
Into the street the piper stepped, Smiling first a little smile As if he knew what magic slept In his quiet pipe the while. And the piper advanced And the children followed.
Robert Browning
I count life just a stuff To try the soul's strength on.
Robert Browning
Ignorance is not innocence but sin.
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
Love, hope, fear, faith - these make humanity These are its sign and note and character.
Robert Browning
Imperfection means perfection hid.
Robert Browning
To me at least was never evening yet, but seemed far beautifuller than its day.
Robert Browning
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
What Youth deemed crystal, Age finds out was dew.
Robert Browning
We mortals cross the ocean of this world Each in his average cabin of a life The bests not big, the worst yields elbowroom.
Robert Browning
One who never turned his back but marched breast forward, never doubted clouds would break, Never dreamed, though right were worsted, wrong would triumph, Held we fall to rise, are baffled to fight better, sleep to wake.
Robert Browning
Is your love for the Lord sufficient to give all your time and talents to his work?
Robert Browning
Look not down but up!
Robert Browning
The trouble that most of us find with the modern matched sets of clubs is that they don't really seem to know any more about the game than the old ones did.
Robert Browning
My sun sets to rise again.
Robert Browning
Faultless to a fault.
Robert Browning
A face to lose youth for, to occupy age With the dream of, meet death with.
Robert Browning
