Earthly Quotes
-

Edgar Allan Poe
-
I ask you to pass through life at my side—to be my second self, and best earthly companion.
Charlotte Bronte
-
When I have learned to love God better than my earthly dearest, I shall love my earthly dearest better than I do now.
C. S. Lewis

Henry Ward Beecher

Petrarch

Anna Dostoyevskaya
