Percy Bysshe Shelley

"Man has no right to kill his brother. It is no excuse that he does so in uniform: he only adds the infamy of servitude to the crime of murder."

"Kiss me, so long but as a kiss may last!"

"The fountains mingle with the river,And the rivers with the ocean; The winds of heaven mix forever,With a sweet emotion; Nothing in the world is single;All things by a law divine In one another's being mingle:— Why not I with thine? See! the mountains kiss high heaven, And the waves clasp one another; No sister flower would be forgiven If it disdained its brother; And the sunlight clasps the earth, And the moonbeams kiss the sea:— What are all these kissings worth, If thou kiss not me?"

"Poetry is a mirror which makes beautiful that which is distorted"

"I arise from dreams of thee,And a spirit in my feet Has led me- who knows how?To thy chamber-window, Sweet!"

"I have drunken deep of joy,And I will taste no other wine tonight."

"O weep for Adonis - He is dead." "Peace. He is not dead he doth not sleep - he hath wakened from the dream of life"

"The being called God...bears every mark of a veil woven by philosophical conceit, to hide the ignorance of philosophers even from themselves. They borrow the threads of its texture from the anthropomorphism of the vulgar."

"God is represented as infinite, eternal, incomprehensible; he is contained under every predicate in non that the logic of ignorance could fabricate."

"Soul meets soul on lovers lips."

"The sunlight claps the earth, and the moonbeams kiss the sea: what are all these kissings worth, if thou kiss not me?"
