441 Quotes by Alfred Tennyson

If I had a flower for every time I thought of you...I could walk through my garden forever.

Half the night I waste in sighs,Half in dreams I sorrow afterThe delight of early skies;In a wakeful dose I sorrowFor the hand, the lips, the eyes,For the meeting of the morrow,The delight of happy laughter,The delight of low replies.

I sometimes hold it half a sinTo put in words the grief I feel;For words, like Nature, half revealAnd half conceal the Soul within.But, for the unquiet heart and brain,A use in measured language lies;The sad mechanic exercise,Like dull narcotics, numbing pain.In words, like weeds, I'll wrap me o'er,Like coarsest clothes against the cold:But that large grief which these enfoldIs given in outline and no more.In Memoriam A.H.H. Section 5

He makes no friends who never made a foe.

As Love, if Love be perfect, casts out fear,So Hate, if Hate be perfect, casts out fear.- Merlin and Vivian

Boldly they rode and well,Into the jaws of Death,Into the mouth of hell.
