William Butler Yeats
-
People who lean on logic and philosophy and rational exposition end by starving the best part of the mind.
-
I have believed the best of every man. And find that to believe is enough to make a bad man show him at his best, or even a good man swings his lantern higher.
-
Choose your companions from the best Who draws a bucket with the rest soon topples down the hill.
-
The only business of the head in the world is to bow a ceaseless obeisance to the heart.
-
Why should we honour those that die upon the field of battle? A man may show as reckless a courage in entering into the abyss of himself.
