Coleridge

Famous quotes containing the word coleridge:

    Work without Hope draws nectar in a sieve,
    And Hope without an object cannot live.
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    You see how this House of Commons has begun to verify all the ill prophecies that were made of it—low, vulgar, meddling with everything, assuming universal competency, and flattering every base passion—and sneering at everything noble refined and truly national. The direct tyranny will come on by and by, after it shall have gratified the multitude with the spoil and ruin of the old institutions of the land.
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    A sadder and a wiser man,
    He rose the morrow morn.
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
