More quotes by William Morris
Wert thou more fickle than the restless sea,
Still should I love thee, knowing thee for such.
Dreamer of dreams, born out of my due time,
Why should I strive to set the crooked straight?
Mastership hath many shifts whereby it striveth to keep itself alive in the world.
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.
