Moore, Thomas
All that's bright must fade, The brightest still the fleetest; All that's sweet was made But to be lost when sweetest.
- Moore, Thomas
Mary, I believed thee true, And I was blest in thus believing; But now I mourn that ever I knew A girl so fair and so deceiving.
- Moore, Thomas
Romantic love is an illusion. Most of us discover this truth at the end of a love affair or else when the sweet emotions of love lead us into marriage and then turn down their flames.

- Moore, Thomas
Marriage is an Athenic weaving together of families, of two souls with their individual fates and destinies, of time and eternity - everyday life married to the timeless mysteries of the soul.
- Moore, Thomas
The world is seldom what it seems; to man, who dimly sees, realities appear as dreams, and dreams realities.
- Moore, Thomas
This world is all a fleeting show, For man's illusion given; The smiles of joy, the tears of woe, Deceitful shine, deceitful flow, - There's nothing true but Heaven.
- Moore, Thomas
