26 Quotes by Felicia Hemans

life's best balm - Forgetfulness!

A passion for flowers, is, I think, the only one which long sickness leaves untouched with its chilling influence.

Passing away" is written on the world and all the world contains.

There’s beauty all around our paths, If but our watchful eyes Can trace it ’midst familiar things, And through their lowly guise.

Is it where the flow'r of the orange blows, And the fireflies dance thro' the myrtle boughs?

Though the past haunt me as a spirit, I do not ask to forget.

There is in all this cold and hollow world, No fount of deep, strong,deathless love ;save that within a mother's heart

Gird your hearts with silent fortitude, suffering yet hoping all things.
