More quotes by William Wordsworth
In truth the prison, unto which we doom Ourselves, no prison is.
William Wordsworth
Through love, through hope, and faith's transcendent dower, We feel that we are greater than we know.
William Wordsworth
She gave me eyes, she gave me ears And humble cares, and delicate fears A heart, the fountain of sweet tears And love and thought and joy.
William Wordsworth
Milton! thou should'st be living at this hour: England hath need of thee! . . . . . . Thy soul was like a star, and dwelt apart: So didst thou travel on life's common way In cheerful godliness.
William Wordsworth
But to a higher mark than song can reach, Rose this pure eloquence.
William Wordsworth
For mightier far Than strength of nerve or sinew, or the sway Of magic potent over sun and star, Is love, though oft to agony distrest, And though his favourite be feeble woman's breast.
William Wordsworth
What is pride? A rocket that emulates the stars.
William Wordsworth
Great God! I'd rather be A Pagan suckled in a creed outworn So might I, standing on this pleasant lea, Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea Or hear old Triton blow his wreathed horn
William Wordsworth
Life is divided into three terms - that which was, which is, and which will be. Let us learn from the past to profit by the present, and from the present, to live better in the future.
William Wordsworth
Hope smiled when your nativity was cast, Children of Summer!
William Wordsworth
Brothers all In honour, as in one community, Scholars and gentlemen.
William Wordsworth
On Man, on Nature, and on Human Life, Musing in solitude, I oft perceive Fair trains of images before me rise, Accompanied by feelings of delight Pure, or with no unpleasing sadness mixed.
William Wordsworth
At length the man perceives it die away, And fade into the light of common day.
William Wordsworth
Golf is a day spent in a round of strenuous idleness.
William Wordsworth
Minds that have nothing to confer Find little to perceive.
William Wordsworth
I should dread to disfigure the beautiful ideal of the memories of illustrious persons with incongruous features, and to sully the imaginative purity of classical works with gross and trivial recollections.
William Wordsworth
The child is father of the man.
William Wordsworth
A voice so thrilling ne'er was heard... Breaking the silence of the seas Among the farthest Hebrides.
William Wordsworth
Type of the wise who soar but never roam, True to the kindred points of heaven and home.
William Wordsworth
I look for ghosts but none will force Their way to me. 'Tis falsely said That there was ever intercourse Between the living and the dead.
William Wordsworth
