An ignorance of means may minister to greatness, but an ignorance of aims make it impossible to be great at all.
From Elizabeth Barrett Browning
God's gifts put man's best dreams to shame.
Who so loves believes the impossible.
Light tomorrow with today!
Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God: But only he who sees takes off his shoes.
You were made perfectly to be loved - and surely I have loved you, in the idea of you, my whole life long.
If thou must love me, let it be for naught except for love's sake only.
God answers sharp and sudden on some prayers, And thrusts the thing we have prayed for in our face, A gauntlet with a gift in it.
At painful times, when composition is impossible and reading is not enough, grammars and dictionaries are excellent for distraction.
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
