Happy Monday! For this week I’m going back to my English major roots and giving you three British Romantic poets to choose from. When it comes to William Blake, William Wordsworth, and Samuel Taylor Coleridge, who would you marry, date, and dump? Let me know in the comments! Bonus points for listing your favorite poems or quotations!

William Blake: “Those who restrain desire do so because theirs is weak enough to be restrained.”

William Wordsworth: “Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart.”
William Wordsworth: “Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart.”
Samuel Taylor Coleridge: “Our own heart, and not other men's opinions, forms our true honor.”
Samuel Taylor Coleridge: “Our own heart, and not other men’s opinions, forms our true honor.”
