Additional quotes by Robert Browning

T is just a flower's fate: past parterre we trip,
Till peradventure someone plucks our sleeve

Gold as it was, is, shall be evermore: Prime nature with an added artistry —
No carat lost, and you have gained a ring.
What of it? 'T is a figure, a symbol, say;
A thing's sign: now for the thing signified.

Grow old along with me! The best is yet to be.
