“In ourselves our safety must be sought. By our own right hand it must be wrought.”

How does the Meadow flower its bloom unfold? Because the lovely little flower is free down to its root, and in that freedom bold.

Continuous as the stars that shine And twinkle on the milky way, They stretch’d in never-ending line Along the margin of a bay: Ten thousand saw I at a glance Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from.

Chains tie us down by land and sea; And wishes, vain as mine, may be All that is left to comfort thee.

A mind forever Voyaging through strange seas of Thought, alone.

Come forth into the light of things, let nature be your teacher.

Memories -images and precious thoughts that shall not die and cannot be destroyed.

Type of the wise who soar but never roam, True to the kindred points of heaven and home.

Our noisy years seem moments in the being Of the eternal Silence.

Habit rules the unreflecting herd.

Faith is a passionate intuition.

Strongest minds are often those whom the noisy world hears least.

From the body of one guilty deed a thousand ghostly fears and haunting thoughts proceed.

Poetry is the first and last of all knowledge – it is as immortal as the heart of man.

Shalt show us how divine a thing A woman may be made.

I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o’er vales and hills When all at once I saw a crowd A host of golden daffodils Beside the lake beneath the trees Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

I’ve just always had a boyfriend my whole life, and I’ve – now I’m really focusing on myself and I think that’s more important right now.

Right is right though all condemn, and wrong is wrong though all approve.

You have a right to your thoughts and feelings. Your feelings are always valid.

I wanted the young African-American girls also on the bus to know that they had a right to be there, because they had paid their fare just like the white passengers.

When intuition and logic agree, you are always right.

I will not be touched if someone says, ‘I do not love you.’ You have the right. You do not have to love me.

You hit a bad shot, you have to get over it right there and then so you can get focused on the next one.

I’ve always treated my children as beings in their own right. I respect their feelings and aspirations entirely.
