I have laid sorrow to sleep;
More quotes by Arthur Symons
The mystic too full of God to speak intelligibly to the world.
Without charm there can be no fine literature, as there can be no perfect flower without fragrance.
Here in a little lonely room
I am master of earth and sea,
And the planets come to me.
You may also like
Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
