And yet I know not why;
It is the one great woe of life
To feel all feeling die.

Could we but think with the intensity we love with, we might do great things.

Philip James Bailey

    • Report...
While men are what they are; while they have bad
Passions to be roused up: while ruled by men;
While all the powers and treasures of a land
At beck of the ambitious, wrongs may be
Offered, with insult; yea, while rights are worth
Maintaining; freedom keeping, or life having,
So long dread I, the sword shall shine.
