George Gordon Byron

George Gordon Byron

There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more
~ George Gordon Byron

Kahlil Gibran

Kahlil Gibran

You have been told that, even like a chain, you are as weak as your weakest link.
This is but half the truth.
You are also as strong as your strongest link.
To measure you by your smallest deed is to reckon the power of the ocean
by the frailty of its foam.
To judge you by your failures is to cast blame upon the seasons for their inconstancy.
~ Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet

~ Truman Capote, Truman Capote: Conversations

Emily Dickinson

Emily Dickinson

One need not be a chamber to be haunted.
