They stood aloof the scars remaining. Like cliffs which had been rent asunder.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Until you understand a writer's ignorance, presume yourself ignorant of his understanding.

I look'd to Heav'n, and try'd to pray; But or ever a prayer had gusht, A wicked whisper came and made My heart as dry as dust.

If a man could pass through Paradise in a dream, and have a flower presented to him as a pledge that his soul had really been there, and if he found that flower in his hand when he awoke - Aye! and what then?

A man’s desire is for the woman, but the woman’s desire is rarely other than for the desire of the man.

He went like one that hath been stunn'd, And is of sense forlorn: A sadder and a wiser man He rose the morrow morn.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Alas; they had been friends in youth but whispering tongues can poison truth
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Swiftly, swiftly flew the ship, Yet she sailed softly too: Sweetly, sweetly blew the breeze - On me alone it blew.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Prose: words in their best order; poetry: the best words in the best order.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
The fair breeze blew, The white foam flew, And the forrow followed free. We were the first to ever burst into the silent sea.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
The many men, so beautiful! And they all dead did lie: And a thousand thousand slimy things Lived on; and so did I.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Deep thinking is attainable only by a man of deep feeling, and all truth is a species of revelation

Works of imagination should be written in very plain language; the more purely imaginative they are the more necessary it is to be plain.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
No mind is thoroughly well-organized that is deficient in a sense of humor.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Alone, alone, all, all alone, Alone on a wide wide sea! And never a saint took pity on My soul in agony.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
A grief without a pang, void, dark and drear, A drowsy, stifled, unimpassioned grief, Which finds no natural outlet or relief, In word, or sigh, or tear.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
No man was ever yet a great poet, without at the same time being a profound philosopher.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Nothing is as contagious as enthusiasm. It is the real allegory of the myth of Orpheus; it moves stones, and charms brutes. It is the genius of sincerity, and truth accomplishes no victories without it.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Language is the armory of the human mind, and at once contains the trophies of its past and the weapons of its future conquests.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Like one, that on a lonesome road Doth walk in fear and dread, And having once turned round walks on, And turns no more his head; Because he knows, a frightful fiend Doth close behind him tread.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
In Xanadu did Kubla Khan A stately pleasure-dome decree: Where Alph, the sacred river, ran Through caverns measureless to man Down to a sunless sea.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
The happiness of life is made up of minute fractions - the little, soon forgotten charities of a kiss or a smile, a kind look or heartfelt compliment.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Since then, at an uncertain hour, That agony returns: And till my ghastly tale is told, This heart within me burns.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
He who is best prepared can best serve his moment of inspiration.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
He prayeth best, who loveth best All things both great and small; For the dear God who loveth us, He made and loveth all.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Her lips were red, her looks were free, Her locks were yellow as gold: Her skin was white as leprosy, The Nightmare Life-in-Death was she, Who thicks man's blood with cold.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Our own heart, and not other men's opinions, forms our true honor.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Advice is like snow; the softer it falls, the longer it dwells upon, and the deeper it sinks into the mind.
Quote by -Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Sir, I admit your general rule, That every poet is a fool, But you yourself may serve to show it, That every fool is not a poet.
