Additional quotes by Samuel Taylor Coleridge

In the hexameter rises the fountain's silvery column; In the pentameter aye falling in melody back.

He, who begins by loving Christianity better than Truth, will proceed by loving his own Sect or Church better than Christianity, and end in loving himself better than all.

The one red leaf, the last of its clan,
That dances as often as dance it can,
Hanging so light, and hanging so high,
On the topmost twig that looks up at the sky.

The many men, so beautiful! And they all dead did lie: And a thousand thousand slimy things Lived on; and so did I. - Samuel Taylor Coleridge
