Robert Browning Tis not what man Does which exalts him, but what man Would do! Robert Browning What of soul was left, I wonder, when the kissing had to stop? Robert Browning What Youth deemed crystal, Age finds out was dew. Robert Browning What's a man's age? He must hurry more, that's all; Cram in a day, what his youth took a year to hold. Robert Browning White shall not neutralize the black, nor good compensate bad in man, absolve him so: life's business being just the terrible choice.
