Alfred, Lord Tennyson Quotes

«Someone had blundered:/ Theirs not to make reply,/ Theirs not to reason why,/ Theirs but to do and die.»
«Ring out the thousand wars of old,/ Ring in the thousand years of peace.»
«Tears, idle tears,/I know not what they mean,/ Tears from the depth of some divine despair,/ Rise in the heart and gather in the eyes,/ In looking on the happy autumn fields,/ And thinking of the days that are no more.»
«My purpose holds/ To sail beyond the sunset, and the baths/ Of all the western stars, until I die./ It may be that the gulfs will wash us down;/ It may be we shall touch the Happy Isles/ And see the great Achilles.»
«A sorrow's crown of sorrow is remembering happier times.»
«Ours not to reason why Ours but to do and die.»
«If depression had settled like a blanket on the minds of most players,»
«Once he drew-with one long kiss-My whole soul through his lips.»
«Pray God our greatness may not fail/ Thro' craven fears of being great.»
«I am shamed thro' all my nature to have loved so slight a thing.»
