Additional quotes by Christina Rossetti

Oh roses for the flush of youth,
And laurel for the perfect prime;
But pluck an ivy branch for me
Grown old before my time.

Silence more musical than any song.

One day in the country
Is worth a month in town.

Better by far you should forget and smile Than that you should remember and be sad. - Christina Rossetti
