Man errs not that he deems His welfare his true aim, He errs because he dreams The world does but exist that welfare to bestow.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

Children of men! the unseen Power, whose eye Forever doth accompany mankind, Hath look'd on no religion scornfully That men did ever find.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

The discipline of the Old Tes...

The discipline of the Old Testament may be summed up as a discipline teaching us to abhor and flee from sin; the discipline of the New Testament, as a discipline teaching us to die to it.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

The sea is calm tonight. The tide is full, the moon lies fair Upon the straits;- on the French coast the light Gleams and is gone; the cliffs of England stand, glimmering and vast, out in the tranquil bay.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

Youth dreams a bliss on this ...

Youth dreams a bliss on this side of death. It dreams a rest, if not more deep, More grateful than this marble sleep; It hears a voice within it tell: Calm's not life's crown, though calm is well. 'Tis all perhaps which man acquires, But 'tis not what our youth desires.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

It is not in the outward and ...

It is not in the outward and visible world of material life that the Celtic genius of Wales or Ireland can at this day hope to count for much; it is in the inward world of thought and science.What it has been, what is has done, what it will be or will do, as a matter of modern politics.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

The best poetry will be found...

The best poetry will be found to have a power of forming, sustaining, and delighting us, as nothing else can.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

Now, the whole world hears Or...

Now, the whole world hears Or shall hear,--surely shall hear, at the last, Though men delay, and doubt, and faint, and fail,-- That promise faithful:--"Fear not, little flock! It is your Father's will and joy, to give To you, the Kingdom"!

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

Creep into thy narrow bed, Creep, and let no more be said!

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

Come to me in my dreams, and ...

Come to me in my dreams, and then By day I shall be well again. For then the night will more than pay The hopeless longing of the day.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

The heart less bounding at emotion new, The hope, once crushed, less quick to spring again.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

Grey time-worn marbles Hold the pure Muses. In their cool gallery, By yellow Tiber, They still look fair.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

All pains the immortal spirit...

All pains the immortal spirit must endure, All weakness that impairs, all griefs that bow, Find their sole voice in that victorious brow.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

Inequality has the natural an...

Inequality has the natural and necessary effect, under the present circumstances, of materializing our upper class, vulgarizing our middle class, and brutalizing our lower class.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

Beautiful city! . . . spreadi...

Beautiful city! . . . spreading her gardens to the moonlight, and whispering from her towers the last enchantments of the Middle Age . . . her ineffable charm. . . . Adorable dreamer, whose heart has been so romantic!

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

The uppermost idea with Helle...

The uppermost idea with Hellenism is to see things as they really are; the uppermost ideas with Hebraism is conduct and obedience.Nothing can do away with this ineffaceable difference. The Greek quarrel with the body and its desires is, that they hinder right thinking; the Hebrew quarrel with them is, that they hinder right acting.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

Ah love, let us be true to on...

Ah love, let us be true to one another, which seems to lie before us like a land of dreams; so various, so beautiful, so new, hath really neither joy nor love nor life.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

Others abide our question. Th...

Others abide our question. Thou art free. We ask and ask. Thou smilest and art still, Out-topping knowledge.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

The highest reach of science ...

The highest reach of science is, one may say, an inventive power, a faculty of divination, akin to the highest power exercised in poetry; therefore, a nation whose spirit is characterised by energy may well be eminent in science; and we have Newton. Shakspeare [sic] and Newton: in the intellectual sphere there can be no higher names. And what that energy, which is the life of genius, above everything demands and insists upon, is freedom; entire independence of all authority, prescription and routine, the fullest room to expand as it will.

Matthew Arnold 296 quotes

Everything in our political l...

Everything in our political life tends to hide from us that there is anything wiser than our ordinary selves.
