Browning, Robert (1812 – 1889), English poet
Grow old along with me the best is yet to be.
Ignorance is not innocence but sin.
What’s the earth With all its art, verse, music, worth – Compared with love, found, gained, and kept?
Why comes temptation, but for man to meet and master and crouch beneath his foot, and so be pedestaled in triumph?
Ah, but a man’s reach should exceed his grasp – or what’s a heaven for?
A minute’s success pays the failure of years.
