“Far away beyond the pine-woods,' he answered, in a low dreamy voice, 'there is a little garden. There the grass grows long and deep, there are the great white stars of the hemlock flower, there the nightingale sings all night long. All night long he sings, and the cold, crystal moon looks down, and the yew-tree spreads out its giant arms over the sleepers.” LooksLittlesLongNightStarsGrowsVoiceWhiteTreeFlowerArmsColdMoonLowsGardenDown AndSpreadWoodsGrassGiantsFar AwayAll NightCrystalsDreamyNightingalesSleepersHemlockYew Book:Collected Works of Oscar Wilde: The Plays, the Poems, the Stories and the Essays Including De Profundis Source: Collected Works of Oscar Wilde: The Plays, the Poems, the Stories and the Essays Including De Profundis
“Roads go ever ever on, Over rock and under tree, By caves where never sun has shone, By streams that never find the sea; Over snow by winter sown, And through the merry flowers of June, Over grass and over stone, And under mountains of the moon. Roads go ever ever on Under cloud and under star, Yet feet that wandering have gone Turn at last to home afar. Eyes that fire and sword have seen And horror in the halls of stone Look at last on meadows green And trees and hills they long have known” LooksLongHomeEyeLastsTurnsStarsKnownSunGoneFireTreeSeaFeetRocksFlowerHorrorMoonMountainStonesGreenWinterCloudsSnowWanderHillsGrassStreamsHallsCavesJuneMerryMeadowsAfar Author:J.

“The true purpose of life is the perfection of humanity through individual effort, under the guidance of God's inspiration. Real life is response to the best within us. To be alive only to appetite, pleasure, pride, money-making, and not to goodness and kindness, purity and love, poetry, music, flowers, stars, God and eternal hopes, is to deprive one's self of the real joy of living.” RealSelfInspirationLife IsJoyPurposeReligionHumanityIndividualStarsReligiousPleasureEffortKindnessAliveFlowerPrideGoodnessEternalPerfectionAnd LoveResponseReal LifeMaking MoneyGuidancePurityPurpose Of LifeAppetiteLove PoetryGoodness And KindnessJoy Of LivingTrue PurposeReal JoyIndividual EffortPurity And Love Author:David O.

“I know a planet where there is a certain red-faced gentleman. He has never smelled a flower. He has never looked at a star. He has never loved any one. He has never done anything in his life but add up figures. And all day he says over and over, just like you: 'I am busy with matters of consequence!' And that makes him swell up with pride. But he is not a man - he is a mushroom!” KnowsMenMatterDoneCertainStarsFiguresPlanetsFlowerLike YouPrideConsequenceRedAddBusyGentlemanMushrooms Author:Antoine de Saint-Exupery
“Everything that is dead quivers. Not only the things of poetry, stars, moon, wood, flowers, but even a white trouser button glittering out of a puddle in the street... Everything has a secret soul, which is silent more often than it speaks.” SoulSpeakStarsWhiteSecretStreetsFlowerMoonSilentWoodsButtonsPuddlesQuiver Author:Wassily Kandinsky
