More quotes by Thomas Moore
Rich and rare were the gems she wore, And a bright gold ring on her hand she bore.
Thomas Moore
The many great gardens of the world, of literature and poetry, of painting and music, of religion and architecture, all make the point as clear as possible: The soul cannot thrive in the absence of a garden. If you don't want paradise, you are not human and if you are not human, you don't have a soul.
Thomas Moore
It is precisely because we resist the darkness in ourselves that we miss the depths of the loveliness, beauty, brilliance, creativity, and joy that lie at our core.
Thomas Moore
The key to seeing the world's soul, and in the process wakening our own, is to get over the confusion by which we think that fact is real and imagination is illusion.
Thomas Moore
Disappointments in love, even betrayals and losses, serve the soul at the very moment they seem in life to be tragedies. The soul is partly in time and partly in eternity. We might remember the part that resides in eternity when we feel despair over the part that is in life.
Thomas Moore
The past, the future: - two eternities!
Thomas Moore
T'is the last rose of summer, Left blooming alone.
Thomas Moore
It may help us, in those times of trouble, to remember that love is not only about relationship, it is also an affair of the soul.
Thomas Moore
The young May moon is beaming, love. The glow-worm's lamp is gleaming, love. How sweet to rove, Through Morna's grove, When the drowsy world is dreaming, love! Then awake! - the heavens look bright, my dear, 'Tis never too late for delight, my dear, And the best of all ways To lengthen our days Is to steal a few hours from the night, my dear!
Thomas Moore
The ordinary acts we practice every day at home are of more importance to the soul than their simplicity might suggest.
Thomas Moore
This is the right time, and this is the right thing.
Thomas Moore
Usually, the main problem with life conundrums is that we don't bring to them enough imagination
Thomas Moore
In our prayer and meditation we hope for fulfilling ordinary life.
Thomas Moore
We let a river shower its banks with a spirit that invades the people living there, and we protect that river, knowing that without its blessings the people have no source of soul.
Thomas Moore
Fond memory brings the light of other days around me.
Thomas Moore
The heart that has truly loved never forgets, But as truly loves on to the close.
Thomas Moore
All that's bright must fade, The brightest still the fleetest All that's sweet was made But to be lost when sweetest.
Thomas Moore
Romantic love is an illusion. Most of us discover this truth at the end of a love affair or else when the sweet emotions of love lead us into marriage and then turn down their flames.
Thomas Moore
A genuine odyssey is not about piling up experiences. It is a deeply felt, risky, unpredictable tour of the soul.
Thomas Moore
I thought that the light-house looked lovely as hope, That star on life's tremulous ocean.
Thomas Moore
