 We all have known good critics, who have stamped out poet's hopes; Good statesmen, who pulled ruin on the state; Good patriots, who, for a theory, risked a cause; Good kings, who disemboweled for a tax; Good Popes, who brought all good to jeopardy; Good Christians, who sat still in easy-chairs; And damned the general world for standing up. Now, may the good God pardon all good men! |

| Whoso loves believes the impossible |
| Women know the way to rear up children (to be just). They know a simple, merry, tender knack of tying sashes, fitting baby-shoes, and stringing pretty words that make no sense. And kissing full sense into empty words. |
| World's use is cold, world's love is vain, world's cruelty is bitter bane; but is not the fruit of pain. |
| You were made perfectly to be loved - and surely I have loved you, in the idea of you, my whole life long. |
