“To be a poet is to have a soul so quick to discern, that no shade of quality escapes it, and so quick to feel, that discernment is but a hand playing with finely-ordered variety on the chords of emotion--a soul in which knowledge passes instantaneously into feeling, and feeling flashes back as a new organ of knowledge.”
― George Eliot, Middlemarch

“I do feel it gone,
But know not how it went”
― William Shakespeare, The Winter's Tale

“The great tragedy of life is not that men perish, but that they cease to love.”
― W. Somerset Maugham

“What would you have? Your gentleness shall force
More than your force move us to gentleness.”
― William Shakespeare, As You Like It
