Robert Browning Quotes

Ah, but a man’s reach should exceed his grasp, Or what’s a heaven for?

The aim, if reached or not, makes great the life; Try to be Shakespeare, leave the rest to fate!

That low man seeks a little thing to do, Sees it and does it: This high man, with a great thing to pursue, Dies ere he knows it. That low man goes on adding nine to one, His hundred’s soon hit: This high man, aiming at a million, Misses an unit.
