More quotes by Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Samuel Taylor Coleridge
The once red leaf, the last of its clan, that dances as often as dance it can.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
And the Devil did grin, for his darling sin is pride that apes humility.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Friends should be weighed, not told who boasts to have won a multitude of friends has never had one.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
All thoughts, all passions, all delights Whatever stirs this mortal frame All are but ministers of Love And feed His sacred flame.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Samuel Taylor Coleridge
I do not wish you to act from these truths no, still and always act from your feelings only meditate often on these truths that sometime or other they may become your feelings.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
O let me be awake, my God! Or let me sleep alway.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
And here were forests ancient as the hills, Enfolding sunny spots of greenery.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
To admire on principle is the only way to imitate without loss of originality.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
It is a gentle and affectionate thought, that in immeasurable height above us, at our first birth, the wreath of love was woven with sparkling stars for flowers.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Silence does not always mark wisdom.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Clergymen who publish pious frauds in the interest of the church are the orthodox liars of God.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
He holds him with his glittering eye, And listens like a three years' child.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
To all new truths, or renovation of old truths, it must be as in the ark between the destroyed and the about-to-be renovated world. The raven must be sent out before the dove, and ominous controversy must precede peace and the olive wreath.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
For compassion a human heart suffices, but for full and adequate sympathy, with joy, an angel's only.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
The history of man for the nine months preceding his birth would, probably, be far more interesting and contain events of greater moment than all the three score and ten years that follow it.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
About, about, in reel and rout the death fires danced at night.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
How inimitably graceful children are in general-before they learn to dance.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
