Additional quotes by William Wordsworth

One of those heavenly days that cannot die.

Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting:
The Soul that rises with us, our life's Star,
Hath had elsewhere its setting,
And cometh from afar:
Not in entire forgetfulness,
And not in utter nakedness,
But trailing clouds of glory do we come

But who, if he be called upon to face Some awful moment to which Heaven has joined Great issues, good or bad for human kind, Is happy as a Lover.

As tempted more; more able to endure, As more exposed to suffering and distress; Thence, also, more alive to tenderness. - William Wordsworth
