Matthew Arnold Quotes on Peace

6 quotes

  1. Calm soul of all things! make it mine To feel, amid the city's jar, That there abides a peace of thine, Man did not make, and cannot mar.

  2. Resolve to be thyself; and know, that he Who finds himself, loses his misery.

  3. Strew on her roses, roses, And never a spray of yew. In quiet she reposes: Ah! would that I did too.

  4. Peace, peace is what I seek and public calm, Endless extinction of unhappy hates.

  5. Sand-strewn caverns, cool and deep, Where the winds are all asleep.

  6. The sea is calm tonight. The tide is full, the moon lies fair Upon the straits;-on the French coast the light Gleams and is gone; the cliffs of England stand, Glimmering and vast, out in the tranquil bay.
