Poetry Quote by Louise Glück — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“They say”

“Balm of the summer night, balm of the ordinary,”

“It is true that there is not enough beauty in the world.”

“Birth, not death, is the hard loss.”

“I think here I will leave you. It has come to seem”

“Gretel in Darkness:”

“the moon has consistently remained by my side in my darkest of times and when everyone left me to my nightmares, the sun has always been there to wake me up...”

“I act as the tongue of you,”

“Someone I loved once told me that there are fragments within us that are the same age as the universe, and because we are matter, we can never be destroyed. That a part of us will live forever and ever, and that in making us the universe was celebrating itself, we are its living, breathing joy.”

“But at my back I always hear”

“They should have warned you that little princesses grow up to be red rocks and raging seas, fire dragons and warrior queens.”

“Always”
