- John Keats (1795 - 1821)

- John Keats (1795 - 1821)
- The only means of strengthening one's intelligence is to make up one's mind about nothing-- to let the mind be a thoroughfare for all thoughts.
- John Keats (1795 - 1821)
- If I should die, I have left no immortal work behind me - nothing to make my friends proud of my memory - but I have loved the principle of beauty in all things, and if I had had time I would have made myself remembered.
- John Keats (1795 - 1821), Letter to Fanny Brawne, Feb 1820 - died 1 year later
