Elizabeth Barrett Browning: Quotes
- Achievement
Measure not the work
Until the day's out and the labor done.
: Aurora Leigh - Love
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach.
: Sonnets from the Portuguese - Opinion
Men get opinions as boys learn to spell,
By reiteration chiefly.
: Aurora Leigh - Sorrow
I tell you, hopeless grief is passionless;
That only men incredulous of despair,
Half-taught in anguish, through the midnight air
Beat upward to God's throne in loud access
Of shrieking and reproach. - The Devil
The devil's most devilish when respectable.: Aurora Leigh
