Think not when autumn comes
To pluck the fruits of love.
Ne croy pas en automne
Cueillir les fruits de l'amour.
Cueillir les fruits de l'amour.
Original text (French)
Think not when autumn comes
More quotes by Honorat de Bueil de Racan
It is never too soon nor too late
To taste of the pleasures of life.
The impatient longing in my soul doth grow
To know the evil that I fear to know.
Et vous, eaux qui dormez sur des lits de pavots,
Vous qui toujours suivez vous-mêmes fugitives...
All Honorat de Bueil de Racan quotes →
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.
