Delight Quotations
We find delight in the beauty and happiness of children that makes the heart too big for the body. Ralph Waldo Emerson By necessity, by proclivity, and by delight, we all quote. Ralph Waldo Emerson When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy. When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight. Kahlil Gibran The moment you have in your heart this extraordinary thing called love and feel the depth, the delight, the ecstasy of it, you will discover that for you the world is transformed. Jiddu Krishnamurti A poem begins in delight and ends in wisdom. Robert Frost |
