3 William Butler Yeats Quotes on Heart

William Butler Yeats quotes on heart

1. The only business of the head in the world is to bow a ceaseless obeisance to the heart.

43. Never give all the heart, for love Will hardly seem worth thinking of To passionate women if it seem Certain, and the never dream That it fades out from kiss to kiss; For everything that's lovely is but a brief, dreamy, kind of delight. O never give the heart outright, For they, for all smooth lips can say, Have given their hearts up to the play. And who could play it well enough If deaf and dumb and blind with love? He that made this knows all the cost, For he gave all his heart and lost.

91. Too long a sacrifice Can make a stone of the heart.
