Thomas Moore Sweet Quotations

Romantic love is an illusion. Most of us discover this truth at the end of a love affair or else when the sweet emotions of love lead us into marriage and then turn down their flames.

No, there's nothing half so sweet in life as love's young dream.

All that's bright must fade, The brightest still the fleetest; All that's sweet was made But to be lost when sweetest.

Came but for friendship, and took away love.

Sweet flowers alone can say what passion fears revealing.

The young May moon is beaming, love. The glow-worm's lamp is gleaming, love. How sweet to rove, Through Morna's grove, When the drowsy world is dreaming, love! Then awake! - the heavens look bright, my dear, 'Tis never too late for delight, my dear, And the best of all ways To lengthen our days Is to steal a few hours from the night, my dear!

No there's nothing half so sweet in lifeAs love's young dream.
