All Nature seems at work. Slugs leave their lair The bees are stirring, birds are on the wing, And Winter slumbering in the open air, Wears on his smiling face a dream of spring.

More quotes by Samuel Taylor Coleridge
I stood in unimaginable trance And agony that cannot be remembered.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
To see him act is like reading Shakespeare by flashes of lightning.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
What is one man's gain is another's loss.
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
The curiosity of an honorable mind willingly rests there, where the love of truth does not urge it farther onward, and the love of its neighbor bids it stop in other words, it willingly stops at the point where the interests of truth do not beckon it onward, and charity cries, Halt!
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Poor little Foal of an oppressed race! I love the languid patience of thy face.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
All nature seems at work.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Death but supplies the oil for the inextinguishable lamp of life.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Genius is the power of carrying the feelings of childhood into the powers of manhood.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Brute animals have the vowel sounds man only can utter consonants.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
A grief without a pang, void, dark and drear, A drowsy, stifled, unimpassioned grief, Which finds no natural outlet or relief, In word, or sigh, or tear.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
O pure of heart! Thou needest not ask of me what this strong music in the soul may be!
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
He who begins by loving Christianity more than Truth, will proceed by loving his sect or church better than Christianity, and end in loving himself better than all.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Method means primarily a way or path of transit. From this we are to understand that the first idea of method is a progressive transition from one step to another in any course. If in the right course, it will be the true method if in the wrong, we cannot hope to progress.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
All sympathy not consistent with acknowledged virtue is but disguised selfishness.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Our own heart, and not other men's opinion, forms our true honor.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
A man's desire is for the woman, but the woman's desire is rarely other than for the desire of the man.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Deep thinking is attainable only by a man of deep feeling, and all truth is a species of revelation
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
He prayeth best, who loveth best All things both great and small For the dear God who loveth us, He made and loveth all.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Let every book-worm, when in any fragrant, scarce old tome, he discovers a sentence, a story, an illustration, that does his heart good, hasten to give it the widest circulation that newspapers and magazines, penny and halfpenny, can afford.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
