Percy Bysshe Shelley
Quotations
Cold hopes swarm like worms within our living clay.
Every epoch, under names more or less specious, has deified its peculiar errors.
Reviewers, with some rare exceptions, are a most stupid and malignant race. As a bankrupt thief turns thief-taker in despair, so an unsuccessful author turns critic.
A man, to be greatly good, must imagine intensely and comprehensively; he must put himself in the place of another and of many others; the pains and pleasures of his species must become his own.
The great instrument of moral good is the imagination.
Familiar acts are beautiful through love.
Poetry lifts the veil from the hidden beauty of the world, and makes familiar objects be as if they were not familiar.
The pleasure that is in sorrow is sweeter than the pleasure of pleasure itself.
If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?
