Additional quotes by William Wordsworth

Ocean is a mighty harmonist.

What though the radiance that was once so bright, be now forever taken from my sight. Though nothing can bring back the hour of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower; We will grieve not, rather find strength in what remains behind.

Three sleepless nights I passed in sounding on, Through words and things, a dim and perilous way.

One impulse from a vernal wood May teach you more of man, Of moral evil and of good, Than all the sages can. - William Wordsworth
