Letter "F" » Francis Thompson Quotes
«Know you what it is to be a child? It is to be something very different from the man of to-day. It is to have a spirit yet streaming from the waters of baptism; it is to believe in love, to believe in loveliness, to believe in belief; it is to be so little that the elves can reach to whisper in your ear; it is to turn pumpkins into coaches, and mice into horses, lowness into loftiness, and nothing into everything, for each child has its fairy godmother in its own soul.»
«All things by immortal power,Near and FarHiddenlyTo each other linked are,That thou canst not stir a flowerWithout troubling of a star.»
«Nothing begins and nothing ends That is not paid with moan; For we are born in other's pain, And perish in our own»
«An atheist is a man who believes himself to be an accident»
«Look for me in the nurseries of Heaven.»
«The devil doesn't know how to sing, only how to howl.»
«Spring is come home with her world-wandering feet./ And all the things are made young with young desires.»
«I do not believe that Nature has a heart; and I suspect that, like many another beauty, she has been credited with a heart because of her face»
«And left the flushed print in a poppy there.»
«The chambers in the house of dreams Are fed with so divine an air, That Time's hoary wings grow young therein, And they who walk there are most fair.»
