Prayer is the very highest energy of which the mind is capable.

Contempt is egotism in ill- humor.

Conscience is the pulse of reason

He saw a lawyer killing a viper on a dunghill hard by his own stable; And the Devil smiled, for it put him in mind of Cain and his brother Abel.

That saints will aid if men will call; For the blue sky bends over all!

There is one art of which people should be masters - the art of reflection.

Samuel Coleridge 621 quotes

He knows well the evening star...

He knows well the evening star, and once when he awoke, in a most distressful mood (some inward pain had made up that strange thing, an infant's dream), I hurried with him to our orchard plot, and he beheld the moon, and hushed at once. Suspends his sobs and laughs most silently. While his fair eyes, that swam with undropped tears, did glitter in the yellow moonbeam.

Samuel Coleridge 621 quotes

To doubt has more of faith ......

To doubt has more of faith ... than that blank negation of all such thoughts and feelings which is the lot of the herd of church-and-meeting trotters.

Samuel Coleridge 621 quotes

The act of praying is the very highest energy of which the human mind is capable; praying, that is, with the total concentration of the faculties. The great mass of worldly men and of learned men are absolutely incapable of prayer.

The once red leaf, the last of its clan, that dances as often as dance it can.

Samuel Coleridge 621 quotes

About, about, in reel and rout...

About, about, in reel and rout the death fires danced at night.

Samuel Coleridge 621 quotes

My case is a species of madness, only that it is a derangement of the Volition, and not of the intellectual faculties.

Samuel Coleridge 621 quotes

A noise like of a hidden brook...

A noise like of a hidden brook In the leafy month of June, That to the sleeping woods all night Singeth a quiet tune.

Samuel Coleridge 621 quotes

For she belike hath drunken deep Of all the blessedness of sleep.

Carved with figures strange and sweet, All made out of the carver's brain.

The genius of Coleridge is like a sunken treasure ship, and Coleridge a diver too timid and lazy to bring its riches to the surface.

Samuel Coleridge 621 quotes

It has been observed before that images, however beautiful, though faithfully copied from nature, and as accurately represented in words, do not of themselves characterize the poet. They become proofs of original genius only as far as they are modified by a predominant passion; or by associated thoughts or images awakened by that passion; or when they have the effect of reducing multitude to unity, or succession to an instant; or lastly, when a human and intellectual life is transferred to them from the poet's spirit.

Samuel Coleridge 621 quotes

Truths ... are too often consi...

Truths ... are too often considered as so true, that they lose all the power of truth, and lie bed-ridden in the dormitory of the soul, side by side with the most despised and exploded errors.

Samuel Coleridge 621 quotes

It is saying less than the tru...

It is saying less than the truth to affirm that an excellent book (and the remark holds almost equally good of a Raphael as of a Milton) is like a well-chosen and well-tended fruit tree. Its fruits are not of one season only. With the due and natural intervals, we may recur to it year after year, and it will supply the same nourishment and the same gratification, if only we ourselves return to it with the same healthful appetite.

Samuel Coleridge 621 quotes

The age seems sore from excess...

The age seems sore from excess of stimulation, just as a day or two after a thorough Debauch and long sustained Drinking-match a man feels all over like a Bruise. Even to admire otherwise than on the whole and where 'I admire' is but a synonyme for 'I remember, I liked it very much when I was reading it ,' is too much an effort, would be too disquieting an emotion!
