God's finger touched him, and he slept.
He makes no friends who never made a foe.
The Gods themselves cannot recall their gifts.
Love is the only gold.
Let the great world spin for ever down the ringing grooves of change.
Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
I am a part of all that I have met.
Ring out the false, ring in the true.
Ours not to reason why, ours but to do and die.
My strength is as the strength of ten, because my heart is pure.
A day may sink or save a realm.
Theirs is not to make reply: Theirs is not to reason why: Theirs is but to do and die.
Self-reverence, self-knowledge, self-control; these three alone lead life to sovereign power.
Shape your heart to front the hour, but dream not that the hours will last.
Sin is too stupid to see beyond itself.
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
So many worlds, so much to do, so little done, such things to be.
O earth, what changes hast thou seen!
'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
