A Quote by Alexander Pope

To the Elysian shades dismiss my soul, where no carnation fades. — © Alexander Pope
To the Elysian shades dismiss my soul, where no carnation fades.
Dismiss whatever insults your soul.
With a stroke of love on the canvas of my soul I'm painting a perfect world with shades of Michelangelo With each promise made in every heart that knows we can live in a perfect world in shades of Michelangelo I hear songs of children echo in the sky I hear songs of children a tomorrow so bright!
Re-examine all that you have been told... dismiss that which insults your soul.
By dismissing what could work, we dismiss our own growth. We dismiss what's possible.
Blue is the only color which maintains its own character in all its tones it will always stay blue; whereas yellow is blackened in its shades, and fades away when lightened; red when darkened becomes brown, and diluted with white is no longer red, but another color – pink.
Not everything I do is gossip or bedroom. To the contrary, I think that's just an easy label to dismiss me and to dismiss the new medium.
For it is unknown what is the real nature of the soul, whether it be born with the bodily frame or be infused at the moment of birth, whether it perishes along with us, when death separates the soul and body, or whether it visits the shades of Pluto and bottomless pits, or enters by divine appointment into other animals.
Surrender the vert platonic bond tying your soul to mine craft, the sky fades a pink shadow cast.
When prayer fades out, power fades out. We are as spiritual as we are prayerful; no more, no less.
And in my flower-beds, I think, Smile the carnation and the pink.
Only if you're from L.A. do you know Elysian Park.
Do not be critics, you people, I beg you. I was a critic and I wish I could take it all back because it came from a smelly and ignorant place in me, and spoke with a voice that was all rage and envy. Do not dismiss a book until you have written one, and do not dismiss a movie until you have made one, and do not dismiss a person until you have met them. It is a f@*$%load of work to be open-minded and generous and understanding and forgiving and accepting, but Christ, that is what matters. What matters is saying yes.
If you gave me a fresh carnation, I would only crush its tender petals.
A parallel between color and music can only be relative – just as a violin can give warm shades of tone, so yellow has shades, which can be expressed by various instruments.
But just make someone who has fallen in love listen to his stomach rumble, and the unity of body and soul, that lyrical illusion of the age of science , instantly fades away.
The colors that show best by candlelight are white, carnation, and a kind of sea-water green.
