All thoughts, all passions, all delights Whatever stirs this mortal frame All are but ministers of Love And feed His sacred flame.


Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Chris Christie

I'm American. I'm eclectic. I'm going to follow my musical passions. And if people don't like it, and it hurts my legacy, I'm not going to worry about that.


Renee Fleming

Thomas Jefferson

Anyone who seeks to destroy the passions instead of controlling them is trying to play the angel.


Voltaire

By means of poetry all this suffering and effort could be transformed into dream; no matter how much of the ephemeral existed, poetry could immortalize it by turning it into song.

But now two new passions were kindled inside me: beauty and the thirst for learning.


Nikos Kazantzakis

I now bid farewell to the country of my birth - of my passions - of my death; a country whose misfortunes have invoked my sympathies - whose factions I sought to quell - whose intelligence I prompted to a lofty aim - whose freedom has been my fatal dream.


Thomas Francis Meagher
