Quotes by Francis Thompson
“ Short arm needs man to reach to Heaven,
So ready is Heaven to stoop to him. ”
“ Thou canst not stir a flower / Without troubling of a star. ”
“ Know you what it is to be a child? It is to be something very different from the man of today. It is to have a spirit yet streaming from the waters of baptism; it is to believe in love, to believe in loveliness, to believe in belief; it is to be so little that the elves can reach to whisper in your ear; it is to turn pumpkins into coaches, and mice into horses, lowness into loftiness, and nothing into everything, for each child has its fairy godmother in its soul. ”
“ Nothing begins, and nothing ends,
That is not paid with moan,
For we are born in other's pain,
And perish in our own. ”
“ The innocent moon, that nothing does but shine,
Moves all the labouring surges of the world. ”
“ The fairest things have fleetest end,
Their scent survives their close:
But the rose's scent is bitterness
To him that loved the rose. ”
“ Look for me in the nurseries of Heaven. ”
