Ella Wheeler Wilcox Quotes About Speed

Quotes about: Speed

• The birds laugh loud and long together When Fashion's followers speed away At the first cool breath of autumn weather. Why, this is the time, cry the birds, to stay! When the deep calm sea and the deep sky over Both look their passion through sun-kissed space, As a blue-eyed maid and her blue-eyed lover Might each gaze into the other's face.

• Life is too short for any vain regretting... Between the swift sun's rising and its setting, we have no time for useless tears or fretting, life is too short.... Time is the best avenger if we wait, the years speed by, and on their wings bear healing, life is too short for aught but high endeavor-too short for spite, but long enough for love. And love lives on forever and forever.

• For this is wisdom- to love and live To take what fate or the Gods may give, To ask no question, to make no prayer, To kiss the lips and caress the hair, Speed passion's ebb as we greet its flow, To have and to hold, and, in time--let go.

• Affirm the body, beautiful and whole,
  The earth-expression of immortal soul.
  
  Affirm the mind, the messenger of the hour,
  To speed between thee and the source of power.
  
  Affirm the spirit, the Eternal I -
  Of this great trinity no part deny.
