“Till I loved I never lived.”

“Till I loved I never liked enough.”

“Till it has loved, no man or woman can become itself.”

“My dying tutor told me that he would like to live till I had been a poet, but Death was much of Mob as I could master-then-And when far afterward-a sudden light on Orchards, or a new fashion in the wind troubled my attention- I felt a palsy, here- the Verses just relieve-" (174)”

“Beauty crowds me till I die,Beauty, mercy have on me!But if I expire today,Let it be in sight of thee”

“We never know how high we are till we are called to rise. Then if we are true to form our statures touch the skies.”

“We outgrow love like other things and put it in a drawer, till it an antique fashion shows like costumes grandsires wore.”
