Robert Browning
Days decrease, / And autumn grows, autumn in everything.

Robert Browning
The common problem, yours, mine, everyone's Is ? not to fancy what were fair in life Provided it could be ? but, finding first What may be, then find how to make it fair Up to our means.
Robert Browning
Grow old with me! The best is yet to be.
Robert Browning
