Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Painting is the intermediate somewhat between a thought and a thing.
Coleridge quotes
Poetry is certainly something more than good sense, but it must be good sense at all events; just as a palace is more than a house, but it must be a house, at least.
Coleridge
In many ways doth the full heart reveal
The presence of the love it would conceal.




There is not wind enough to twirl
The one red leaf, the last of its clan,
That dances as often as dance it can,
Hanging so light, and hanging so high,
On the topmost twig that looks up at the sky.
Coleridge Samuel Taylor
I am glad you came in to punctuate my discourse, which I fear has gone on for an hour without any stop at all.
