Other men it is said have seen angels, but I have seen thee and thou art enough.

George Moore

About This Quote

This quote needs no introduction—at least for now. We're working on adding more context soon.

Interpretation

The speaker contrasts secondhand reports of transcendent visions (“other men…have seen angels”) with an immediate, personal encounter that renders such marvels unnecessary. The beloved’s presence is framed as sufficient revelation: a human relationship eclipses supernatural spectacle. The archaic diction (“thee,” “thou”) heightens the tone of devotion and suggests a quasi-religious register, as if love itself supplies what mysticism promises—wonder, consolation, and meaning. The line thus elevates intimate perception over hearsay and implies that the highest “vision” may be found in the tangible, particular person before one’s eyes.
