An instinctive taste teaches men to build their churches in flat
countries with spire steeples, which, as they cannot be referred
to any other object, point as with silent finger to the sky and
stars.More Samuel Coleridge quotes [03/29/2018 05:03:36]

Brute animals have the vowel sounds; man only can utter consonants.More Samuel Coleridge quotes [03/29/2018 05:03:36]

Therefore all seasons shall be sweet to thee,
Whether the summer clothe the general earth
With greenness, or the redbreast sit and sing
Betwixt the tufts of snow on the bare branch
Of mossy apple tree.More Samuel Coleridge quotes [03/29/2018 05:03:36]

Words in prose ought to express the intended meaning; if they attract attention to themselves, it is a fault; in the very best styles you read page after page without noticing the medium. Works of imagination should be written in very plain language; the more purely imaginative they are, the more necessary it is to be plain.More Samuel Coleridge quotes [03/29/2018 05:03:36]

The fair breeze blew, The white foam flew, And the forrow followed free. We were the first to ever burst into the silent sea.More Samuel Coleridge quotes [03/29/2018 05:03:36]
