Robert Browning
Our aspirations are our responsibilities.
Robert Browning
Who hears music feels his solitude peopled at once.
Robert Browning
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

Robert Browning

Robert Browning
I give the fight up: let there be an end, a privacy, an obscure nook for me. I want to be forgotten even by God.
Robert Browning
Shakespeare was of us, Milton was of us, Burns, Shelley, were with us. They watch from their graves!
Robert Browning
Again the Cousin's whistle! Go, my Love.
Robert Browning
The great beacon light God sets in all, the conscience of each bosom.
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
Desire joy and thank God for it. Renounce it, if need be, for other's sake. That's joy beyond joy.
