William Wordsworth Spirit Quotations

Poetry is the breath and finer spirit of all knowledge; it is the impassioned expression which is in the countenance of all Science.

Give unto me, made lowly wise,/ The spirit of self-sacrifice.

Yet sometimes, when the secret cupOf still and serious thought went round,It seemed as if he drank it up --He felt with spirit so profound.

With gentle handTouch -- for there is a spirit in the woods.

A slumber did my spirit seal;/ I had no human fears:/ She seemed a thing that could not feel/ The touch of earthly years. No motion has she now, no force;/ She neither hears nor sees;/ Rolled round in earth's diurnal course. . .

A perfect woman, nobly planned,To warn, to comfort, and command;And yet a Spirit still, and brightWith something of angelic light.

poetry is the breath and finer spirit of knowledge

A cheerful life is what the Muses love. A soaring spirit is their prime delight.

Wisdom and Spirit of the universe! Thou soul, that art the eternity of thought, And giv'st to forms and images a breath And everlasting motion.

Wisdom and spirit of the Universe!
