Tennyson

Famous quotes containing the word tennyson:

    And sweet it was to dream of Fatherland,
    Of child, and wife, and slave; but evermore
    Most weary seemed the sea, weary the oar,
    Weary the wandering fields of barren foam.
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    Can I think of her as dead, and love her for the love she bore?
    No—she never loved me truly: love is love for evermore.
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    Not in vain the distance beacons. Forward let us range,
    Let the great world spin for ever down the ringing grooves of
    change.
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
