Description
This book is a collection of 128 fundamental quotes and aphorisms of Robert Browning: "It is the glory and good of Art that Art remains the one way possible of speaking truth,—to mouths like mine, at least." "I judge people by what they might be,—not are, nor will be." "I show you doubt, to prove that faith exists." "Ignorance is not innocence but sin." "It's wiser being good than bad; It's safer being meek than fierce: it's fitter being sane than mad." "We find great things are made of little things, and little things go lessening till at last comes God behind them." "Make no more giants, God! But elevate the race at once!"
