Additional quotes by Thomas Moore

Who has not felt how sadly sweet
The dream of home, the dream of home,
Steals o'er the heart, too soon to fleet,
When far o'er sea or land we roam?

Love, nursed among pleasures, is faithless as they,
But the love born of Sorrow, like Sorrow, is true.

All that's bright must fade,— The brightest and the fleetest; All that's sweet was made, But to be lost when sweetest.

As sunshine broken in the rill, Though turned astray, is sunshine still. - Thomas Moore
