60 quotes
By many a temple half as old as Time.
True as the echo to the sound.
Long on the wave reflected lustres play.
Twilight’s soft dews steal o’er the village green, with magic tints to harmonize the scene.
Every day a little life, a blank to be inscribed with gentle thoughts.
A man who attempts to read all the new productions must do as the flea does,—skip.
Example is a motive of very prevailing force on the actions of men.
Looks that asked, yet dared not hope relief.
Through the wide world he only is alone who lives not for another.
What remains when hope is fled? She answered, “Endless weeping.”
Women have the understanding of the heart, which is better than that of the head.
Day glimmered in the east, and the white moon hung like a vapor in the cloudless sky.
Her tea she sweetens, as she sips, with scandal.
That mute eloquence which passeth speech.
The holy calm that leads to heavenly musing.
When a new book comes out, I read an old one.
