We live in deeds, not years; in thoughts, not breaths

by Philip James Bailey
We live in deeds, not years; in thoughts, not breaths;
—In feelings, not in figures on a dial.
We should count time by heart-throbs. He most lives
—Who thinks most—feels the noblest—acts the best.

We live in deeds, not years; in thoughts, not breaths;
—In feelings, not in figures on a dial.
We should count time by heart-throbs. He most lives
—Who thinks most—feels the noblest—acts the best.
