Pictures deface walls more often than they decorate them. - William Wordsworth
"Pictures deface walls more often than they decorate them."
"Pictures deface walls more often than they decorate them."
"The thought of our past years in me doth breed Perpetual benediction: not indeed For that which is most worthy to be blest— Delight and liberty, the simple creed Of Childhood, whether busy or at rest, With new-fledged hope still fluttering in his breast."
"With an eye made quiet by the power of harmony, and the deep power of joy, we see into the life of things."
"Though nothing can bring back the hourOf splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower;We will grieve not, rather findStrength in what remains behind;In the primal sympathyWhich having been must ever be..."
"Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting:The Soul that rises with us, our life's Star,Hath had elsewhere its setting,And cometh from afar:Not in entire forgetfulness,And not in utter nakedness,But trailing clouds of glory do we come"
"Not without hope we suffer and we mourn."
