Walter Scott

Faces that have charmed us the most escape us the soonest.

One crowded hour of glorious life Is worth an age without a name.

When thinking about companions gone, we feel ourselves doubly alone.

Teach your children poetry; it opens the mind, lends grace to wisdom and makes the heroic virtues hereditary.

So wondrous wild, the whole might seemthe scenery of a fairy dream.

Love rules the court, the camp, the grove, and men below, and the saints above, for love is heaven, and heaven is love.
