Matthew Arnold Quotes on Loneliness

4 quotes

  1. Yes: in the sea of life enisl'd, With echoing straits between us thrown, Dotting the shoreless watery wild, We mortal millions live alone.

  2. Wandering between two worlds, one dead, The other powerless to be born, With nowhere yet to rest my head, Like these, on earth I wait forlorn.

  3. Singing, 'Here came a mortal, But faithless was she: And alone dwell for ever The kings of the sea.'

  4. And amongst us one, Who most has suffer'd, takes dejectedly His seat upon the intellectual throne.
