Number of Quotes: 6
A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
Its loveliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness;
Endymion
Beauty is truth, truth beauty. That is all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.
I would sooner fail than not be among the greatest.
Love in a hut, with water and a crust,
Is - Love, forgive us! - cinders, ashes, dust;
Love in a palace is perhaps at last
More grievous torment than a hermit's fast.
Love is my religion - I could die for it.
Nothing ever becomes real till it is experienced ... even a proverb is no proverb till your life has illustrated it.
