William Wordsworth Quotes

«No human ear shall ever hear me speak;No human dwelling ever give me food,Or sleep, or rest: but, over waste and wild,In search of nothing, that this earth can give,But expiation, will I wander on --A Man by pain and thought compelled to live,Yet loathing life -- till anger is appeasedIn Heaven, and Mercy gives me leave to die.»
«Never to blend our pleasure or our prideWith sorrow of the meanest thing that feels.»
Author: William Wordsworth (Poet) | Keywords: blend, meanest

«More skilful in self-knowledge, even more pure,/ As tempted more; more able to endure,/ As more exposed to suffering and distress.»
