Women hate a debt as men a gift.
Robert BrowningThere is an inmost center in us all, where truth abides in fullness;....and, to know, rather consists in opening out a way where the imprisoned splendor may escape, then in effecting entry for a light supposed to be without.
Robert BrowningI know what I want and what I might gain, and yet, how profitless to know.
Robert BrowningGod is the perfect poet.
Robert BrowningWhat's the earth
With all its art, verse, music, worth —
Compared with love, found, gained, and kept?
My sun sets to rise again.

... Such a scribe
you pay and praise for putting life in stones,
Fire into fog, making the past your world.
There's plenty of 'How did you contrive to grasp
The thread which led you through this labyrinth?
How build such solid fabric out of air?
How on so slight foundation found this tale,
Biography, narrative?' or, in other words,
How many lies did it require to make
The portly truth you here present us with?
The rain set early in tonight,
The sullen wind was soon awake,
It tore the elm-tops down for spite,
And did its best to vex the lake:
I listened with heart fit to break.
When glided in Porphyria; straight
She shut the cold out and the storm,
And kneeled and made the cheerless grate
Blaze up and all the cottage warm;

If you get simple beauty and naught else, you get about the best thing god invents
