Alfred Lord Tennyson Quotes
Love is the only gold. Men at most differ as Heaven and Earth, but women, worst and best, as Heaven and Hell. My strength has the strength of ten because my heart is pure. No man ever got very high by pulling other people down. The intelligent merchant does not knock his competitors. The sensible worker does not work those who work with him. Don't knock your friends. Don't knock your enemies. Don't knock yourself. O earth, what changes hast thou seen! Ours not to reason why, ours but to do and die. Ring out the false, ring in the true. Self-reverence, self-knowledge, self-control; these three alone lead one to sovereign power. Shape your heart to front the hour, but dream not that the hours will last. Sin is too stupid to see beyond itself. So many worlds, so much to do, so little done, such things to be. Such a one do I remember, whom to look at was love. The Gods themselves cannot recall their gifts. The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions. The same words conceal and declare the thoughts of men. Theirs is not to make reply: Theirs is not to reason why: Theirs is but to do and die. There lives more faith in honest doubt, believe me, than in half the creeds. There's no glory like those who save their country. 'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
