More quotes by Thomas Moore

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
T'is the last rose of summer, Left blooming alone.
Thomas Moore

Thomas Moore
Though the last glimpse of Erin with sorrow I see, Yet wherever thou art shall seem Erin to me In exile thy bosom shall still be my home, And thine eyes make my climate wherever we roam.
Thomas Moore
Sweet flowers alone can say what passion fears revealing.
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
Came but for friendship, and took away love.
Thomas Moore
It is quite cruel that a poet cannot wander through his regions of enchantment without having a critic, forever, like the old man of the sea, upon his back.
Thomas Moore
Go where we may, rest where we will, Eternal London haunts us still.
Thomas Moore
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
