Elizabeth Barrett Browning Quotes

Who so loves believes the impossible.

Tags:

In this abundant earth no doubt

Is little room for things worn out:

Disdain them, break them, throw them by!

And if before the days grew rough

We once were lov'd, us'd -- well enough,

I think, we've far'd, my heart and I.

Tags: broken heart

Our Euripides the human,

With his droppings of warm tears,

and his touchings of things common

Till they rose to meet the spheres.

My patience has dreadful chilblains from standing so long on a monument.

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.

I love thee to the depth and breadth and height

My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight

For the ends of being and ideal grace.

I love thee to the level of every day's

Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.

I love thee freely, as men strive for right.

I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.

I love thee with the passion put to use

In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.

I love thee with a love I seemed to lose

With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath,

Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,

I shall but love thee better after death.

-How Do I Love Thee? (Sonnet 43)
