Side 227 - Life ! we've been long together Through pleasant and through cloudy weather; 'Tis hard. to part when friends are dear — Perhaps 'twill cost a sigh, a tear; — Then steal away, give little warning, Choose thine own time; Say not Good Night, — but in some brighter clime Bid me Good Morning.
Side 465 - Not Chaos, not The darkest pit of lowest Erebus, Nor aught of blinder vacancy, scooped out By help of dreams — can breed such fear and awe As fall upon us often when we look Into our Minds, into the Mind of Man — My haunt, and the main region of my song...

Side 436 - I suppose you mean the greatest love, and the greatest usefulness, and the most open communication, and the noblest sufferings, and the most exemplary faithfulness, and the severest truth, and the heartiest counsel, and the greatest union of minds, of which brave men and -women are capable.
Side 381 - To Kant his obligations are infinite, not so much from what Kant has taught him in the form of doctrine, as from the discipline Kant has taught him to go through. Coleridge is indignant at the low estimation in which the post-Kantians affect to treat their master. At the same time Coleridge himself adds, Kant's writings are not metaphysics, only a propaedutic.
