Barrett

Famous quotes containing the word barrett:

    Let no one till his death

    What is genius—but the power of expressing a new individuality?
    —Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)

    I love thee to the level of everyday’s
    Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
    I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
    I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
    I love thee with the passion put to use
    In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
    —Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)
