Quotes with Lee

The wind doth blow today, my love, And a few small drops of rain; I never had but one true love; In cold grave she was lain. I'll do as much for my true love As any young man may; I'll sit and mourn all at her grave For a twelvemonth and a day. The twelvemonth and a day being up, The dead began to speak: 'Oh who sits weeping on my grave, And will not let me sleep?' 'Tis I, my love, sits on your grave, And will not let you sleep; For I crave one kiss of your cold lips, And that is all I seek.' 'You crave one kiss of my cold lips, But I am one year gone; If you have one kiss of my cold lips, Your time will not be long. 'Tis down in yonder garden green, Love, Where we used to walk, The finest flower that ere was seen Is withered to a stalk. The stalk is withered dry, my love, So will our hearts decay; So make yourself content, my love, Till God calls you away.' - Traditional English Folk Song, 'The Unquiet Grave
I want to be in the arena. I want to be brave with my life. And when we make the choice to dare greatly, we sign up to get our asses kicked. We can choose courage or we can choose comfort, but we can’t have both. Not at the same time. Vulnerability is not winning or losing; it’s having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome. Vulnerability is not weakness; it’s our greatest measure of courage. - Brené Brown, 'Daring Greatly'
I slept and dreamed that life was beauty; I woke and found that life was duty. Was thy dream then a shadowy lie? Toil on, sad heart, courageously, And thou shalt find thy dream to be A noonday light and truth to thee. - Ellen Sturgis Hooper, 'Life's Duty'
