adore
Lovers who dispute adore. [ Proverb ]
Man is not made to question, but adore. [ Young ]
We know that wealth well understood,
Hath frequent power of doing good;
Then fancy that the thing is done,
As if the power and will were one;
Thus oft the cheated crowd adore,
The thriving knaves that keep them poor. [ Gay ]

And falling springs,
Birds, beasts, all things
Adore him in their kinds.
Thus all is hurled
In sacred hymns and order, the great chime
And symphony of nature. [ Henry Vaughan ]
As this auspicious day began the race
Of every virtue join'd with every grace;
May you, who own them, welcome its return,
Till excellence, like yours, again is born.
The years we wish, will half your charms impair;
The years we wish the better half will spare;
The victims of your eyes will bleed no more,
But all the beauties of your mind adore. [ Jeffrey ]
Crabbed age and youth cannot live together;
Youth is full of pleasance, age is full of care;
Youth like summer morn, age like winter weather;
Youth like summer brave, age like winter bare.
Youth is full of sport, age's breath is short;
Youth is nimble, age is lame;
Youth is hot and bold, age is weak and cold;
Youth is wild, and age is tame.
Age, I do abhor thee; youth I do adore thee. [ William Shakespeare ]
Honest men love women; those who deceive them adore them. [ Beaumarchais ]
The beings who appear cold, but are only timid, adore where they dare to love. [ Madame Swetchine ]
Those who appear cold, but are only timid, as soon as they dare to love, adore. [ Mme. Swetchine ]
A pious man said: If I ignored the existence of God, I would adore the sun and women.
We bear it calmly, though a ponderous woe, And still adore the hand that gives the blow. [ Pomfret ]
The fairest fortune that can fall to a thinking man is to have searched out the searchable, and restfully to adore the unsearchable. [ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe ]
Praise consists in the love of God, in wonder at the goodness of God, in recognition of the gifts of God, in seeing God in all things He gives us, ay, and even in the things that He refuses to us; so as to see our whole life in the light of God; and seeing this, to bless Him, adore Him, and glorify Him. [ Manning ]
