I cannot be content with less than heaven.
They who forgive most shall be most forgiven.
The worst men often give the best advice.
Poets are all who love, who feel great truths,
And tell them; and the truth of truths is love.
Who never doubted never half believed
Where doubt there truth is't is her shadow.
We live in deeds, not years; in thoughts, not breaths;
In feelings, not in figures on a dial.
We should count time by heart-throbs. He most lives
Who thinks most, feels the noblest, acts the best.
Life's but a means unto an end; that end
Beginning, mean, and end to all things, God.
The dead have all the glory of the world.
Men might be better if we better deemed
Of them. The worst way to improve the world
Is to condemn it.
I cannot be content with less than heaven;
Living, and comprehensive of all life.
Thee, universal heaven, celestial all;
Thee, sacrjd seat of intellective time;
Field of the soul's best wisdom: home of truth,
Star-throned.
Let each man think himself an act of God,
His mind a thought, his life a breath of God;
And let each try, by great thoughts and good deeds,
To show the most of Heaven he hath in him.
Art is man's nature; nature is God's art.
Evil and good are God's right hand and left.
Any heart turned Godward feels more joy
In one short hour of prayer, than e'er was raised
By all the feasts of earth since its foundation.
