Additional quotes by Elizabeth Barrett Browning

I take her as God made her, and as men Must fail to unmake her, for my honoured wife.

Because God's gifts put man's best dreams to shame.

Instruct me how to thank thee! Oh, to shoot My soul's full meaning into future years, That they should lend it utterance, and salute Love that endures, from life that disappears!
