They sin who tell us love can die;
More quotes by Robert Southey
Thou hast been called, O sleep! the friend of woe;
But ’tis the happy that have called thee so.
Curses are like young chickens, they always come home to roost.
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.
