The whole river is bristling with exigencies in a moment; he is not prepared for them; he does not know how to meet them; all his knowledge forsakes him; and within fifteen minutes he is as white as a sheet and scared almost to death.
Life On The Mississippi, Complete Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens) 2006
Will waking tumult never cease? Hast thou thy votary forgot? Nature forsakes this man-begot And festering wilderness, and now The long still hours are here, no jot Of dear communing do I know; Instead the glaring, man-filled city groans below! A Fairy Tale On winter nights beside the nursery fire We read the fairy tale, while glowing coals Builded its pictures.
A Dome of Many-Coloured Glass Amy Lowell 2008
There's one they call Wielder of Thunder I would were as chill and as cold; But he leaves not the side of his lady As the lindworm forsakes not its gold.” “Always talking of her now!” said Thorgils; “and yet thou wouldst not have her when thou couldst.” “That was more the fault of witchcraft,” answered Cormac, “that any want of faith in me.” Not long after they were sailing hard among crags, and shortened sail in great danger.

The last day of your week's vacation; the last three of your month's or your summer's or your year's outing,--these comprise the hours in which by a mighty but invisible transformation your mind forsakes its savagery, epitomizes again the courses of social evolution, regains the poise and cultivation of the world of men.

Rivers to the Sea Sara Teasdale 1996

Why is our consciousness brighter and more distinct the farther it reaches outwards, so that its greatest clearness lies in sense perception, which already half belongs to things outside us; and, on the other hand, becomes more obscure as we go inwards, and lead…

God always answers our prayers; if there is a delay, it is because He has something better in mind for us. Don’t give up- we commit the mistake of giving up too soon thinking that God has forgotten us little realizing that He never forsakes His children.

It is not yet possessed, it cannot be handled. …It instantly deserts possession, and flies to an object in the horizon. If I could put my hand on the north star, would it be as beautiful?
