Inspirational Quotations by William Wordsworth
- Whether we be young or old,
Our destiny, our being's heart and home,
Is with infinitude, and only there;
With hope it is, hope that can never die,
Effort and expectation, and desire,
And something evermore about to be.
- Life is divided into three terms -
that which was, which is, and which will be.
Let us learn from the past to profit by the present,
and from the present to live better in the future.
- In modern business it is not the crook who is to be feared most, it is the honest man who doesn't know what he is doing.
- How does the meadow flower its bloom unfold?
Because the lovely little flower is free
Down to its root, and in that freedom bold.
- Our noisy years seem moments in the being of the eternal silence.
- Wisdom is oftimes nearer when we stoop than when we soar.
- The best portion of a good man's life is the little,
nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.
