Tennyson, Alfred Lord
"And out of darkness came the hands that reach thro' nature, moulding men."
"All experience is an arch wherethrough gleams that untravelled world whose margin fades for ever and for ever when I move."
"I am a part of all that I have met."
"A lie which is half a truth is ever the blackest of lies."
"'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all."
"Man is the hunter; woman is his game. The sleek and shining creatures of the chase, we hunt them for the beauty of their skins; they love us for it, and we ride them down."
"Nature, red in tooth and claw."
"No rock so hard but a little wave may beat admission in a thousand years."
"Self-reverence, self-knowledge, self-control, these three alone lead life to sovereign power."
"He never sold the truth to serve the hour, Nor paltered with Eternal God for power."
"Men at most differ as Heaven and Earth, but women, worst and best, as Heaven and Hell."
"Words, like nature, half reveal and half conceal the soul within."
"'Tis only noble to be good.
"Dreams are true while they last, and do we not live in dreams?" - The Higher Pantheism
"He makes no friend who never made a foe." - The Idylls of the King
Kind hearts are more than coronets,
And simple faith than Norman blood."
- Lady Clara Vere de Vere
