All that's bright must fade, The brightest still the fleetest All that's sweet was made But to be lost when sweetest.

From plants that wake when others sleep, from timid jasmine buds that keep their odour to themselves all day, but when the sunlight dies away let the delicious secret out to every breeze that roams about.
Thomas Moore
Image
Most, if not all, problems brought to therapists are issues of love. It makes sense that the cure is also love.
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.

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

Thomas Moore

How many times do we lose an occasion for soul work by leaping ahead to final solutions without pausing to savor the undertones? We are a radically bottom-line society, eager to act and to end tension, and thus we lose opportunities to know ourselves for our motives and our secrets.
Thomas Moore
Image
I have plenty of machinery around me what I really need is a more enchanting world in which to live and work.
Thomas Moore
Image
Fond memory brings the light of other days around me.
Thomas Moore

It is only through mystery and madness that the soul is revealed.
Thomas Moore
Image
Come o'er the sea, Maiden with me, Mine through the sunshine, storms and snows Seasons may roll, But the true soul Burns the same, where'er it goes.
Thomas Moore
Image
Humility, that low, sweet root, from which all heavenly virtues shoot.
Thomas Moore
Image
Disguise our bondage as we will, 'Tis woman, woman, rules us still.
Thomas Moore
Image
T'is the last rose of summer, Left blooming alone.
Thomas Moore

Rich and rare were the gems she wore, And a bright gold ring on her hand she bore.
Thomas Moore

The heart that has truly loved never forgets, But as truly loves on to the close.
