Rupert Brooke Quotes and Quotations
Canada is a live country - live, but not, like the States, kicking. If I should die, think only this of me, that there's some corner of a foreign field that is for ever England. I know what things are good: friendship and work and conversation. I have been so great a lover: filled my days So proudly with the splendour of Love's praise, The pain, the calm, and the astonishment, Desire illimitable, and silent content, And all dear names men use, to cheat despair, For the perplexed and viewless streams that bear Our hearts at random down the dark of life. If I should die, think only this of me: That there's some corner of a foreign field That is forever England. |
