There is but one way to brow-beat this world,
Dumb-founder doubt, and repay scorn in kind, — To go on trusting, namely, till faith move Mountains.

Additional quotes by Robert Browning

Say not "a small event!" Why "small"?
Costs it more pain that this ye call
A "great event" should come to pass
From that? Untwine me from the mass
Of deeds which make up life, one deed
Power shall fall short in or exceed!

Blot out his name, then, record one lost soul more,
One task more declin'd, one more foot-path ontrod,
One more devil's triumph and sorrow for angels,
One wrong more to man, one more insult to God!

Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp, Or what's a heaven for?

There is but one way to brow-beat this world, Dumb-founder doubt, and repay scorn in kind, — To go on trusting, namely, till faith move Mountains. - Robert Browning
