Marriage has many pains, but celebacy has no,
pleasures.
--Samuel Johnson--
In thy face I see
The map of honor, truth and loyalty.
--William Shakespeare--
For I have sworn thee fair,
and thought thee bright.
Who art black as hell,
as dark as night.
--William Shakespear--
A friend may be reckoned
the masterpiece of nature.
--Ralph Waldo Emerson--
Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you planned:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve;
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that I once had,
Better by far you forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.
--Christina Rossetti--
Oh what a tangled web we weave,
When first we practice to deceive!
--Sir Walter Scott--
We are spinning our own
fates, good or evil, and
never to be undone.
Every smallest stroke of
virtue or of vice leaves its
never so little scar.
--William James--
Come away! O, human child!
To the woods and waters wild,
With a fairy hand in hand,
For the worlds more full of weeping than
you can understand.
--W. B. Yeats--
Behold the myth of the unicorn
Free did I live in the April of my days,
Exempt from constraints in this adolescence
Where my eye, not yet expert in pain,
Was seized by the soft presence
Which with its divine and lofty excellence
Stunned my soul and senses so well
That the archer shot easily
My liberty gave itself to her;
And from this day on continually
In her beauty lies my death and my life.
--Maurice Scéve--
Evil is easy, and has infinite forms.
--Blaise Pascal--
And doom'd to death, yet fated not to die.
--John Dryden--
We die only once, and for such a long time!
--Moliére--
Men use thought only to justify their wrongdoings,
and speach only to conceal their thoughts.
--Voltaire--
With how much ease we belive what we wish!
Whatever is, is in its causes just.
--John Dryden--
Alas, regardless of their doom,
The little victims play!
No sense have they of ills to come,
Nor care beyond today.
--Thomas Gray--
Lord, I wonder what fool it was that first
invented kissing!
--Jonathan Swift--
Rich the treasure,
Sweet the pleasure -
Sweet is pleasure after pain.
--John Dryden--
Much malice mingled with little wit.
--John Dryden--
Tis strange - but true; for truth is always strange;
Stranger than fiction.
--George Noel Gordon, Lord Byron--
I have found you an argument; I am not obliged to
find you an understanding
--Samuel Johnson--
On the wings of time grief flies away.
--Jean de La Fontaine--
I know this isnt a poem but well I love this song...
MISFITS
"Descending Angel"
Torn from the heavens, they fall from the sky
And walk the streets among mortal men
They hide in shadows, keepers of the night
Mortal life is weak, can't hold back the demons
The blood pours as rain
And soon you'll be alone
Descending Angel
Stand by my side
We'll face the night
Descending Angel
Guard the gates of Hell just one more night
For in the morning... will bring the light
Born and created in the image of a God
The heavens fall
No savior has been sent
No one to guide us, alone we face the night
Mortal life is brief for the rebel angels
They make their final stand
And soon you'll be alone
Descending Angel
Stand by my side
And face the night
Descending Angel
Guard the gates of Hell just one more night
Forever... ends... tonight!
I have many more I could add but this is enough for now I think.
