Additional quotes by William Wordsworth

Choice word, and measured phrase; above the reach Of ordinary men; a stately speech!

As in the eye of Nature he has lived, So in the eye of Nature let him die!

Never to blend our pleasure or our pride With sorrow of the meanest thing that feels.

Though inland far we be, Our souls have sight of that immortal sea Which brought us hither. - William Wordsworth
