I am Ground of thy beseeching: first it is my will that thou have it; and after, I make thee to will it; and after, I make thee to beseech it and thou beseechest it. How should it then be that thou shouldst not have thy beseeching? (Julian of Norwich)

Thou has left behind Powers that will work for thee,air, earth, and skies There 's not a breathing of the common wind That will forget thee thou hast great allies Thy friends are exultations, agonies, And love, and man's unconquerable mind.

William Wordsworth

A husband and wife ought to continue united so long as they love each other. Any law which should bind them to cohabitation for one moment after the decay of their affection would be a most intolerable tyranny, and the most unworthy of toleration.

Percy Bysshe Shelley

Philips, whose touch harmonious could remove The pangs of guilty power and hapless love Rest here, distress'd by poverty no more Here find that calm thou gav'st so oft before Sleep undisturb'd within this peaceful shrine, Till angels wake thee with a note like thine.

Samuel Johnson

Our votes must go together with our guns. After all, any vote we shall have, shall have been the product of the gun. The gun which produces the vote should remain its security officer - its guarantor. The people's votes and the people's guns are always inseparable twins.

Robert Mugabe

Go, forget me! why should sorrow O'er that brow a shadow fling? Go, forget me, and to-morrow Brightly smile and sweetly sing! Smile,-though I shall not be near thee; Sing,-though I shall never hear thee!
