• Love is a gift, a miracle, a mystery. You are led to its threshold by your affinities, by your inclinations, and by the yearnings of your heart, although its power and presentation is by grace, not by expectation, demand, or requirement. Love is the ultimate paradox, for it is the lamb that is also the lion. Love is the ultimate power, which resides in surrender.

• When I hear the hypercritical quarreling about grammar and style, the position of the particles, etc., etc., stretching or contracting every speaker to certain rules of theirs. I see that they forget that the first requisite and rule is that expression shall be vital and natural, as much as the voice of a brute or an interjection: first of all, mother tongue; and last of all, artificial or father tongue. Essentially your truest poetic sentence is as free and lawless as a lamb's bleat.

• I cannot see the short, white curls
  Upon the forehead of an Ox,
  But what I see them dripping with
  That poor thing's blood, and hear the ax;
  When I see calves and lambs, I see
  Them led to death; I see no bird
  Or rabbit cross the open field
  But what a sudden shot is heard;
  A shout that tells me men aim true,
  For death or wound, doth chill me through.
