Law takes a low view of human nature Let her come to me as she will, when she will, not at all if she will not Love has no age, no limit; and no death Never to see yourself as others see you Old men learn to forego their whims People who don't live are wonderfully preserved Perching-place; never--never her cage! Putting up a brave show of being natural Socialists: they want our goods Thank you for that good lie To seem to be respectable was to be You have to buy experience COURAGE COURAGE Is but a word, and yet, of words, The only sentinel of permanence; The ruddy watch-fire of cold winter days, We steal its comfort, lift our weary swords, And on. For faith--without it--has no sense; And love to wind of doubt and tremor sways; And life for ever quaking marsh must tread. Laws give it not; before it prayer will blush; Hope has it not; nor pride of being true; 'Tis the mysterious soul which never yields, But hales us on and on to breast the rush Of all the fortunes we shall happen through. And when Death calls across his shadowy fields-- Dying, it answers: "Here! I am not dead!" SOME FAVORITE PASSAGES
