Herman Melville Quotes
Love Sees Ten Million Fathoms Down, Till Dazzled By The Floor Of Pearls. The Eye Is Love's Own Magic Glass, Where All Things That Are Not Of Earth, Glide In Supernatural Light. There Are Not So Many Fishes In The Sea, As There Are Sweet Images In Lovers' Eyes. In Those Miraculous Translucencies Swim The Strange Eye-fish With Wings, That Sometimes Leap Out, Instinct With Joy; Moist Fish-wings Wet The Lover's Cheek. Love's Eyes Are Holy Things; Therein The Mysteries Of Life Are Lodged; Looking In Each Other's Eyes, Lovers See The Ultimate Secret Of The Worlds; And With Thrills Eternally Untranslatable, Feel That Love Is God Of All. Man Or Woman Who Has Never Loved, Nor Once Looked Deep Down Into Their Own Lover's Eyes, They Know Not The Sweetest And The Loftiest Religion Of This Earth. Love Is Both Creator's And Saviour's Gospel To Mankind; A Volume Bound In Rose-leaves, Clasped With Violets, And By The Beaks Of Humming-birds Printed With Peach-juice On The Leaves Of Lilies.
