Famous quotes containing the word felicity:

    A third felicity of age is that it has found expression. The youth suffers not only from ungratified desires, but from powers untried, and from a picture in his mind of a career which has as yet no outward reality. He is tormented with the want of correspondence between things and thoughts.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
