Thomas Moore
Image
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
Image
The problem in narcissism is not the high ideals and ambitions, it's the difficulty one encounters when trying to give them body.
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
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
Image
In our prayer and meditation we hope for fulfilling ordinary life.
Thomas Moore
Image
Every season hath its pleasure Spring may boast her flowery prime, Yet the vineyard's ruby treasuries Brighten Autumn's sob'rer time.
Thomas Moore
Image
Go where we may, rest where we will, Eternal London haunts us still.
Thomas Moore
Image
You may break, you may shatter the vase, if you will, But the scent of the roses will hang round it still.
Thomas Moore
Image
A genuine odyssey is not about piling up experiences. It is a deeply felt, risky, unpredictable tour of the soul.
