Whoever extolleth him as a God of love, doth not think highly enough of love itself. Did not that God want also to be judge? But the loving one loveth irrespective of reward and requital.

It is our will That thus enchains us to permitted ill. We might be otherwise, we might be all We dream of happy, high, majestical. Where is the love, beauty and truth we seek, But in our mind? and if we were not weak, Should we be less in deed than in desire?

Dana Perino

Respect can only be given to those who have earned it by working for it.

Habeeb Akande

The cottage garden most for use designed, Yet not of beauty destitute.

Charlotte Smith

Small minds are concerned with the extraordinary, great minds with the ordinary.

Alas for the Earth! We are overthrown and have no friend to redeem us. Beauty shall pass utterly from the Land
