Additional quotes by John Keats

Asleep in lap of legends old.

Dancing music, music sad,
Both together, sane and mad…

"When old age shall this generation waste,
Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe
Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st,
"Beauty is truth, truth beauty," - that is all
Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know."
