Strana 111 - Than that a child, more than all other gifts That earth can offer to declining man, Brings hope with it, and forward-looking thoughts, And stirrings of inquietude, when they By tendency of nature needs must fail.
Strana 91 - And will Mr. Lovel come to live with us ?' ' I don't know ; I have never contemplated such a possibility. I think Mr. Lovel is scarcely the kind of person who would care to live in another man's house.

I have not opened my dictionary since we have been reading together. And beyond all that,...
Strana 23 - ... criticisms, which in the end are scarcely more than moral strictures. With Catullus, the fact of adultery must be accepted. To defend it on moral grounds is worse than useless; to attack it on those grounds is to disseminate prejudice and misunderstanding. In the end, Catullus is not the first nor the last man in the world to fall in love with a married woman; it is a common, and tragic, experience, in this day as in that. That Catullus felt himself privileged to carry that love to the point...
