Poetry Quote by William Ernest Henley — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“O, it's die we must, but it's live we can,”

“I said to you,”

“He loved the curves on her body, her soft skin and pouty lower lip, her deep soulful eyes. He adored her voice; sometimes sultry, sometimes fiery. Her laugh, her playfulness... he adored it all. But what really turned him on were the curves in her mind, the twists and turns, the fire, the brilliance - and her compassionate heart; the beat of it harmonizing so sweetly and perfectly with the beat of his. The whole package was beyond thrilling... yet her mind, her heart, those were the immortal aphrodisiacs.”

“That mortal is a fool who, prospering, thinks his life has any strong foundation; since our fortune's course of action is the reeling way a madman takes, and no one person is ever happy all the time.”

“I don’t think that I’ve been in love as such”

“And then all that has divided us will merge”

“I love to move like a mouse inside this puzzle for the body, balancing the wish to be lost with the need to be found.”
