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 615 quotes

Huge and mighty forms that do...

Huge and mighty forms that do not live like living men, moved slowly through the mind by day and were trouble to my dreams.

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

The daisy, by the shadow that it casts, Protects the lingering dewdrop from the sun.

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

No motion has she now, no for...

No motion has she now, no force; she neither hears nor sees; rolled around in earth's diurnal course, with rocks, and stones, and trees.

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

That to this mountain-daisy's...

That to this mountain-daisy's self were known The beauty of its star-shaped shadow, thrown On the smooth surface of this naked stone!

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

But to a higher mark than son...

But to a higher mark than song can reach, Rose this pure eloquence.

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

A soul so pitiably forlorn, I...

A soul so pitiably forlorn, If such do on this earth abide, May season apathy with scorn, May turn indifference to pride; And still be not unblest- compared With him who grovels, self-debarred From all that lies within the scope Of holy faith and christian hope; Or, shipwrecked, kindles on the coast False fires, that others may be lost.

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

In spite of difference of soi...

In spite of difference of soil and climate, of language and manners, of laws and customs-in spite of things silently gone out of mind, and things violently destroyed, the Poet binds together by passion and knowledge the vast empire of human society, as it is spread over the whole earth, and over all time.

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

Now when the primrose makes a...

Now when the primrose makes a splendid show, And lilies face the March-winds in full blow, And humbler growths as moved with one desire Put on, to welcome spring, their best attire, Poor Robin is yet flowerless; but how gay With his red stalks upon this sunny day!

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

Burn all the statutes and the...

Burn all the statutes and their shelves: They stir us up against our kind; And worse, against ourselves.

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

The thought of death sits eas...

The thought of death sits easy on the man Who has been born and dies among the mountains.

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

Long as there's a sun that se...

Long as there's a sun that sets, Primroses will have their glory; Long as there are violets, They will have a place in story: There's a flower that shall be mine, 'Tis the little Celandine.

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

Enough, if something from our...

Enough, if something from our hands have power To live, and act, and serve the future hour; And if, as toward the silent tomb we go, Through love, through hope, and faith's transcendent dower, We feel that we are greater than we know.

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

With little here to do or see...

With little here to do or see Of things that in the great world be, Sweet Daisy! oft I talk to thee For thou art worthy, Thou unassuming commonplace Of Nature, with that homely face, And yet with something of a grace Which love makes for thee!

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

Nor will I then thy modest gr...

Nor will I then thy modest grace forget, Chaste Snow-drop, venturous harbinger of Spring, And pensive monitor of fleeting years!

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

Nor less I deem that there ar...

Nor less I deem that there are Powers
Which of themselves our minds impress;
That we can feed this mind of ours
In a wise passiveness

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

The bosom-weight, your stubbo...

The bosom-weight, your stubborn gift, That no philosophy can lift.

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

The clouds that gather round ...

The clouds that gather round the setting sun, Do take a sober colouring from an eye, That hath kept watch o'er man's mortality.

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

Therefore am I still a lover ...

Therefore am I still a lover of the meadows and the woods, and mountains; and of all that we behold from this green earth.

William Wordsworth 615 quotes

A simple child. That lightly ...

A simple child. That lightly draws its breath. And feels its life in every limb. What should it know of death?
