Kindle Notes & Highlights
your slightest look easily will unclose me though i have closed myself as fingers, you open always petal by petal myself as Spring opens (touching skilfully,mysteriously)her first rose or if your wish be to close me,i and my life will shut very beautifully,suddenly, as when the heart of this flower imagines the snow carefully everywhere descending;
may my heart always be open to little birds who are the secrets of living whatever they sing is better than to know and if men should not hear them men are old
i can entirely her only love
I’d rather learn from one bird how to sing than teach ten thousand stars how not to dance
for betty was born to never say nay but lucy could learn
hopes dance best on bald men’s hair and every finger is a toe and any courage is a fear
deeds cannot dream what dreams can do
love is more thicker than forget more thinner than recall
—fear buries a tomorrow under woe and up comes yesterday most green and young
a politician is an arse upon which everyone has sat except a man
