The poem which begins "Oh the comfort, the inexpressible "is widely attrubited to George Eliot, but it is actually a quote from chapter 16 of a novel titled "A life for a life" (published in 1859) by Dinah Maria (Mulock) Craik. The quote in its entirety is this:
Oh, the comfort --
The inexpressible comfort of feeling
safe with a person,
Having neither to weigh thoughts,
Nor measure words -- but pouring them
All right out -- just as they are --
Chaff and grain together --
Certain that a faithful hand will
Take and sift them --
Keep what is worth keeping --
and with the breath of kindness
Blow the rest away.
