Water, water, everywhere,And all the boards did shrink;Water, water, everywhere,Nor any drop to drink. (Samuel Taylor Coleridge Quotes)
Come, come thou bleak December wind, And blow the dry leaves from the tree! Flash, like a Love-thought, thro’me, Death And take a Life that wearies me. (Samuel Taylor Coleridge Quotes)

Flowers are lovely; love is flower-like; Friendship is a sheltering tree; Oh the joys that came down shower-like, Of friendship, love, and liberty, Ere I was old! (Samuel Taylor Coleridge Quotes)
Not the poem which we have read , but that to which we return , with the greatest pleasure, possesses the genuine power, and claims the name of essential poetry . (Samuel Taylor Coleridge Quotes)
