Very nice
Although I'm not a big fan of post colonial poets but Pablo is an exception.
For the winds that awakened the stars are blowing through my blood.
---W.B. Yeats
To generalize is to be an idiot.
---William Blake
Where there is nothing, there is God.
---W.B. Yeats

What do we know but that we face one another in this place?
----William Butler Yeats
Sweet is the lore which nature brings;
Our meddling intellect
Misshapes the beauteous forms of things—
We murder to dissect.
----William Wordsworth, Lyrical Ballads
When one gets quiet, then something wakes up inside one, something happy and quiet like the stars.
---William Butler Yeats
Eternity is in love with the productions of time.
---William Blake
The things a man has heard and seen are threads of life, and if he pull them carefully from the confused distaff of memory, any who will can weave them into whatever garments of belief please them best. I too have woven my garment like another, but I shall try to keep warm in it, and shall be well content if it do not unbecome me.
---William Butler Yeats
He is full of purpose, but void of the quality of mind which accomplishes purpose.
---Samuel Taylor Coleridge
The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom.
----William Blake
Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting:
The Soul that rises with us, our life's Star,
Hath had elsewhere its setting,
And cometh from afar:
Not in entire forgetfulness,
And not in utter nakedness,
But trailing clouds of glory do we come
---William Wordsworth
Every Night and every Morn
Some to Misery are born.
Every Morn and every Night
Some are born to Sweet Delight,
Some are born to Endless Night.
---William Blake
It will be worth it, if in the end I manage
To blank out whatever it is that is doing the damage.
Then there will be nothing I know.
My mind will fold into itself, like fields, like snow.
----Philip Larkin
Deep thinking is attainable only by a man of deep feeling, and all truth is a species of revelation.
---Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Dreams, books, are each a world; and books, we know,
Are a substantial world, both pure and good:
Round these, with tendrils strong as flesh and blood,
Our pastime and our happiness will grow.
----William Wordsworth
Sex means nothing--just the moment of ecstasy, that flares and dies in minutes.
---Philip Larkin
Deep thinking is attainable only by a man of deep feeling, and all truth is a species of revelation.
----Samuel Taylor Coleridge
What though the radiance which was once so bright
Be now for ever taken from my sight,
Though nothing can bring back the hour
Of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower;
We will grieve not, rather find
Strength in what remains behind.
---William Wordsworth, Ode: Intimations of Immortality
You never know what is enough unless you know what is more than enough.
---William Blake
Common sense in an uncommon degree is what the world calls wisdom.
---Samuel Taylor Coleridge
