Additional quotes by Thomas Moore

Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish;
Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.

When Time who steals our years away
Shall steal our pleasures too,
The mem'ry of the past will stay,
And half our joys renew.

Love on through all ills, and love on till they die.
