Had we but World enough, and Time, This coyness Lady were no crime. We would sit down, and think which way To walk, and pass our long Loves Day. - Andrew Marvell

We would sit down, and think which way
To walk, and pass our long Loves Day.

Additional quotes by Andrew Marvell

What wondrous life in this I lead
Ripe apples drop about my head

Ye glow-worms, whose officious flame
To wand’ring mowers shows the way,
That in the night have lost their aim,
And after foolish fires do stray;

Your courteous lights in vain you waste,
Since Juliana here is come,
For she my mind hath so displac’d
That I shall never find my home.
