“Love is a passion which kindles honor into noble acts.”

“Love is love's reward.”

“Rhyme is the rock on which thou art to wreck.”

“I strongly wish for what I faintly hope; like the daydreams of melancholy men, I think and think in things impossible, yet love to wander in that golden maze.”

“Roused by the lash of his own stubborn tail, Our lion now will foreign foes assail.”

“None are so busy as the fool and knave.”

“Happy the man, and happy he alone, He who can call today his own: He who, secure within, can say, Tomorrow do thy worst, for I have lived today.”
