Poetry Quote by Christina Rossetti — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“What are heavy? sea-sand and sorrow.”

“I weep as I have never wept:”

“Were there no God, we would be in this glorious world with grateful hearts, and no one thank.”

“For if the darkness and corruption leave”

“A fool I was to sleep at noon,”

“I have no heart? Perhaps I have not; / But then you're mad to take offense / That I don't give you what I have not got; / Use your own common sense.”

“When no one is looking,”

“Home is where the heart begins, but not where the heart stays.”

“Does writing poetry make you brave? It is a good question to ask. I think making anything is a brave thing to do. Not like fighting brave, obviously. But a kind that looks at a horrible situation and doesn’t crumble.”

“I have a lot of work to do today;”

“To those who abuse: the sin is yours, the crime is yours, and the shame is yours. To those who protect the perpetrators: blaming the victims only masks the evil within, making you as guilty as those who abuse. Stand up for the innocent or go down with the rest.”

“Când ne deschidem”
