Quotations for stolen

Stolen kisses are always sweetest. [ Leigh Hunt ]

Not to understand a treasure's worth,
Till time has stolen away the slightest good,
Is cause of half the poverty we feel,
And makes the world the wilderness it is. [ Cowper ]

When the daughter is stolen, shut pepper-gate. [ Proverb ]

Locking the stable door when the steed is stolen. [ Proverb ]

And when once the young heart of a maiden is stolen,
The maiden herself will steal after it soon. [ Moore ]

Plagiarists are always suspicious of being stolen from. [ Coleridge ]

The crow, stript of its stolen colours, provokes our ridicule. [ Horace ]

The gathered rose and the stolen heart can charm but for a day. [ Emma C. Embury ]

They have been at a great feast of language, and stolen the scraps.
They have lived long in the alms-basket of words! [ William Shakespeare ]

They have been at a great feast of languages, and stolen the scraps. [ Shakespeare ]

All her excellences stand in her so silently as if they had stolen upon her without her knowledge. [ Sir T. Overbury ]

Steal! to be sure they may, and, egad, serve your best thoughts as gypsies do stolen children, - disfigure them to make them pass for their own. [ Sheridan ]

Put a seal upon your lips and forget what you have done. After you have been kind, after love hath stolen forth into the world and done its beautiful work, go back into the shade again and say nothing about it.

All the poets are indebted more or less to those who have gone before them; even Homer's originality has been questioned, and Virgil owes almost as much to Theocritus, in his Pastorals, as to Homer, in his Heroics; and if our own countryman. Milton, has soared above both Homer and Virgil, it is because he has stolen some feathers from their wings. [ Colton ]

Many a good intention dies from inattention. If, through carelessness or indolence, or selfishness, a good intention is not put into effect, we have lost an opportunity, demoralized ourselves, and stolen from the pile of possible good. To be born and not fed, is to perish. To launch a ship and neglect it is to lose it. To have a talent and bury it, is to be a wicked and slothful servant. For in the end we shall be judged, not alone by what we have done, but by what we could have done. [ Maltbie Babcock ]
