Ocean: A body of water occupying about two-thirds of a world made for man - who has no gills.
The poetry of the earth is never dead
No bird soars too high, if he soars with his own wings
If the lion was advised by the fox, he would be cunning
Autumn wins you best by this its mute appeal to sympathy for its decay
The roaring of the wind is my wife and the stars through the window pane are my children
Flowers are the sweetest things God ever made and forgot to put a soul into.
My heart leaps up when I behold A Rainbow in the sky:
The world is too much with us; late and soon,
God made the country, and man made the town.
