Zitat des Tages von Robert Herrick:
Bid me to love, and I will give a loving heart to thee.
Conquer we shall, but, we must first contend! It's not the fight that crowns us, but the end.
What is a kiss? Why this, as some approve: The sure, sweet cement, glue, and lime of love.
The person lives twice who lives the first life well.
In things a moderation keep; Kings ought to shear, not skin, their sheep.
Know when to speak - for many times it brings danger, to give the best advice to kings.
He loves his bonds who, when the first are broke, Submits his neck into a second yoke.
Thus times do shift, each thing his turn does hold; New things succeed, as former things grow old.
Tears are the noble language of the eye.
Each must in virtue strive for to excel; That man lives twice that lives the first life well.
The body is the soul's poor house or home, whose ribs the laths are and whose flesh the loam.
Who covets more is evermore a slave.
Give me a kiss, and to that kiss a score; Then to that twenty, add a hundred more: A thousand to that hundred: so kiss on, To make that thousand up a million. Treble that million, and when that is done, Let's kiss afresh, as when we first begun.
