Light
Light breaks where no sun shines;Where no sea runs , the water of the heart push in their tides .

There is a tide in the affairs of women
Which, taken at the flood, leads -
God knows where.
Byron, Don Juan

Women
If men knew how women pass their time , when they are alone , they'd never marry .

Alone, alone all all alone,
Alone on a wide, wide sea,
And never a saint took pity on
My soul in agony.
S T Coleridge

Sea
The voice of the sea speaks to the soul . The touch of the sea is sensuous , enfolding the body in its soft , close embrace .
Kate Chopin

Provokes me always to pursue
But spirit-like, eludes embrace.

Spirits
There's nought , no dout , so much the spirits calms As rum & true religion.
Lord Byron

I heard a sound as of scraping tripe,
And putting apples wondrous ripe,
Into a cider-press's gripe.
The Pied Piper of Hamelin.

ripe
If you trap the moment before it's ripe,
The tears of repentance you'll certainly wipe;
But if once you let the ripe moment go
You can never wipe off the tears of woe
~ William Blake

Well the originator of this thread doesn't come here anymore, but I think her intent is for this to be quotes from authors, playwrights, songwriters, and such... although I think there may have been the occasional self quote thrown in once in a while.
