“Child, child, love while you can The voice and the eyes and the soul of a man; Never fear though it break your heart-Out of the wound new joy will start; Only love proudly and gladly and well, Though love be heaven or love be hell.Child, child, love while you may, For life is short as a happy day; Never fear the thing you feel-Only by love is life made real; Love, for the deadly sins are seven, Only through love will you enter heaven.”
Sara Teasdale“When I can look life in the eyes, grown calm and very coldly wise, life will have given me the truth, and taken in exchange - my youth.”
Sara Teasdale“Life has loveliness to sell, all beautiful and splendid things, blue waves whitened on a cliff, soaring fire that sways and sings, and children's faces looking up, holding wonder like a cup.”
Sara Teasdale“Joy was a flame in me Too steady to destroy. Lithe as a bending reed Loving the storm that sways her - I found more joy in sorrow Than you could find in joy.”
Sara Teasdale“I make the most of all that comes and the least of all that goes.”
Sara Teasdale“Though I know he loves me tonight my heart is sad his kiss was not so wonderful as all the dreams I had.”
Sara Teasdale“I have no riches but my thoughts. Yet these are wealth enough for me.”
Sara Teasdale“I make the most of all that comes and the least of all that goes.”
